An unlikely possibility, amongst many other things

Great addition nonetheless.

Very nice additions.

With Yeovilton and Culdrose open days both within the same week. I would be interested to know of any camping sites at Yeoviltion for the Friday / Sunday, before moving on the Culdrose for Tuesday / Thursday. Ideally proper campsites, showers ect, as it would be a 'family' holiday. Any info, links or recommendations ?

Oh dear - another RNHF Sea Fury problem.
Seems an in-flight emergency (engine failure?) resulted in the gear not locking down and collapsing on the roll-out.

Still, pilot ok and machine should be repairable. Did well by all accounts to get it down quickly.
