Hi folks
I did it!!
It was hard work and I look forward to being able to walk in a straight line again in the not too distant future.
Finish time was 5 hours 26 minutes which was a bit slower than my 5 hour target but hey, its the first one I have ever done, I wasn’t last and have raised over £750 for a very worthwhile charity.
Thanks to everyone who sponsored me and also to the Mods for allowing me to put this posting on here.
Kind regards

Thanks Rad, it is a beautiful day her today and the forecast is for the same tomorrow. I will let you know how I get on.
Kind regards

You will have to excuse my ignorance if the answer to this question is simple…
There is often criticism of the look of a R3350 re-engined Sea Fury because of the “missing” prop blade, so the question is, why can’t a normal 5 bladed Centaurus prop be fitted to the R3350 engine to maintain the original “look” of the aircraft.
Thanks

The Hurri-bomber flew again last Friday – just fyi 🙂
Did Peter fly her ?
Can’t beat the classic… Ray Ban Aviators
Seconded 😎
Pic 1 (left most) Top left (red metal part with ‘hooks’) is the knock out direct vision panel on the forward lower pane on the port side of the canopy. Left buckle is off the flying helmet/goggle, right buckle is one of the two flap retainers off the seat pack parachute. On picture 4, the shiny curvy C piece is off the lower fuel **** (which is joined to the upper by a rod from the upper ****)….I assume you know the perspex and bullets! I shall have a look at the rest later when I return from work…..incidentally, if you have any small parts for my collection of Hurri stuff that would be gratefully recieved. My Hurricane project and collection is shown in the website below

PS always happy to ID aircraft parts, particularly Hurri!
Absolutely amazing knowledge – I am so impressed I would buy you a pint if we ever meet.
