With the exception of the ex-Walton dash -7 model (because it rarely if ever flies/is seen), most of the ex-UK Corsairs are doing great over here

Other than the former Warbids of Great Britain Machine which if I’m not mistaken was the one which hit Howard Pardue’s Bearcat at Oshkosh some years ago and destroyed itself. I know at the time the pilot survived the crash however I have heard nothing since, has anyone else??

I think you might!!!!

As for the T33, I doubt the North Weald example was flying today, but miracles cold happen!!!

So Mr.Rhodes heres a chance for you to be a big Hero with your fellow UK Warbird Guys, why don’t you step right up and purchase the Firefly and bring it back home, before some Aussie or even worse Bloody Yank buys and puts it back into the Air.

This being the former Royal Australian Navy Firefly which was origionally imported into the UK by Sir William Roberts in the 1970’s. Following a change of ownership in the UK it eventually ended up in America in the mid 80’s and has passed around a few owners since then with very little having been done to it.

Any idea what time it will depart Cambridge tomorrow????

Old Crow is the SHF machine, it and the A26 were last heard of in Europe awaiting an engine or two.

I’ve seen bins of Hurricane widgets that didn’t exist, but do, and are avaliable thanks to HR.

Don’t forget the Engineering Company who have produced many of these widgets for HR 😀

Yep, that’s the scheme I was thinking of.
