Very nicely done, Mike. Thanks for letting us know. It sounds like the Sea Fury will be flying for a long time, with the R-2800 availability.

Interesting article, Mike. It gives the outsider at least a glimpse of what it's like to be on the inside. Thanks for sharing this with us!

Thanks gents! Your comments are certainly appreciated. Dave O'Malley, the editor at Vintage News and the gent responsible for making the article look good, has been receiving some interesting feed back because the article and may have a line on photos of TG114 when it was in service. He hopes to add an appendix to the article. If that happens I will let you know when the new version is posted.

Regards,

Mike
