You sure you aren’t getting confused with the new centaurus they have just purchased for holland?
Am I missing something? I thought VH-ISS was going to Vormezeele in Belgium…… The only Sea Fury left in Holland is the static ‘6-43’ at the MLM of Soesterberg..
Or is someone buying me a true Christmas present 😉

It looks like a Porsche 356………….:rolleyes:
but are we interested in cars?
Time for a new thread!

1.69 million dollars sounds expensive for a Mustang construction kit.
Airfix used to be a lot cheaper :diablo:
Thanks Matthias for updating us, and
“Hals und Beinbruch” with the project !!
Aerovet
Congrats from Holland….
There can never be to many airworthy Sea Furies 🙂
So keep the Centaurus in one piece , please……….:diablo:

D-FDME you mean?
Sorry, but the aircraft has been re-registered many moons ago…
It now flies as D-FDME………..

Typhoons !!!
Diving deeper into the matter, the Dutch book “En nooit was het stil” edited by the Hist Section of the R.Neth AF, gives the clue.
The attack on 26/11/44 was performed by Typhoons of No 146 Wing, led by Group Capt Gillam, followed by those of No263 sq.

Attack on the Euterpestraat
for those interested: the headquarters of the Gestapo in Amsterdam were in the Euterpestraat (nowadays named Gerrit van de Veenstraat, after a Dutch resistance hero)

I would definitely go to Yeovilton: where in the UK can one see an Albacore, two Fireflies, a Fulmar and a British Corsair?
(and although not WW II, the unique Wyvern is a treat too:)
Highly recommended !!
Aerovet
Thanks… I must have learnt someting from all those British detective series:)
I am looking forward to the Connies…: the type is my all time favourite!

PH-TEF….
I would also go for PH-TEF: just visible below the cockpit window is the first part of the name: It seems to me that it reads ‘Frans’ the rest of the name of famous Dutch painter ‘Frans Hals’ is probably hidden behind the door…
The photo is a nice find..! If there are other interesting ones: please keep them coming. Thanks for posting!
Aerovet
Great… but personally, I would fit it with a Centaurus and call it: Sea Fury :dev2:
But thanks for the link!
Aerovet
also from Holland……..
although the picture was taken elsewhere 😉
This article needs some illustration………..
It shows D-FYAK during the very, very wet ILA 2004

another forum……..
that of our German friends at Flugzeugforum.de have a nice overview by Belgian Boy, which I quote here:

You will note that more than 41 airframes are listed. It is likely that some unidentified airframes are already listed.
The five Avioane and the Yakovlev new built aircraft are not included.
With the exception of D-FJII, the Yaks now Flying in Germany were built in the nineties by yakovlev and by Strega in Orianenburg.

I hope you can find someting interesting in here!
