Sea Fury T20 Forced Landing

#1 Post by FD2 » Tue Aug 04, 2020 8:18 pm

Sadly the Sea Fury T20 G-INVN, operated by the Norwegian Historic Foundation, has made a forced landing at Duxford and is badly damaged. I hope the crew are OK - they are reported as injured.

They might do if there's a spare heavy-lift helicopter available...

As a wise man would say nothing some speedtape wouldn't fix.
