Seafury and Firefly

St Mawgan, 16 August 1978.

 

A few months before I started taking photos myself, my dad flew with Netherlands Navy SP-2H Neptune '218' to St. Mawgan for the annual airshow. After more than 40 years I scanned some of the printed photos he took that day.

 

The Royal Navy Historical Flight still had these two golden oldies.

Hawker Sea Fury FB.11 TF956 and Fairey Firefly AS.5 WB271

 

Both were lost in accidents, in 1989 and 2003 respectively.
