    I think that plane came to Reynolds via the CWH. They had an ex-RCAF Vamp that went to Reynolds in the early 1990s. I’ll check the serial when I get home this pm.

    I think Enzenhofer had HS498. I also see some listings showing NASM having a Swordfish, but they don’t have it listed on their web site.

    See the confusion?

    Guys,

    Thanks for the listing of survivors, but I still wonder about a few planes:

    HS509 – could this be the other Spence hulk?
    HS517
    One airplane sold from Simmons to Waco Texas, USA
    One airplane sold from Simmons to Spruce Goose Memorial, CA, USA – is this the now CAF restoration project?
    A couple of planes that went from Simmmons to Luther Young in FL USA
    One airplane that was on display with Niagria Museum of Flight, Canada in the 1970s
    What plane does Bristol Heritage have?
    Where did the Reynolds plane come from?
    Is there a Swordfish at the Aero Museum in Calgary?

    I believe that Hurricane is a rebuild of 5461. I was under the impression it was a replica, but I am told it started with the center section and possibly the tail of 5461. I didn’t know it was so far along.

    Thanks for the pics,

    Jim

    How about some RCN marked warbirds? N232J at Hamilton, Ontario, Canada when owned by Bill Sims and then at Blue Ash, Ohio when owned by Ron Runyan.

    According to the noble Mr Patterson – this is indeed the only Centaurus powered example on those far off shores

    There is one more U.S. Centaurus Fury but I believe it hasn’t flown in years. It is the War Eagle Air Museum’s “Simply Magnificent.” A perfect name for a Fury.

    P.S.: Nice pictures!
