Notes:

Rare low res photo of VH-HFX (Hawker Fury 10), formerly Iraqi FB10 Fury 243 (Cn 37534/ISS13), painted as RAN Sea Fury WH589 (Code NW-115). The Fury is parked in a 34 Squadron Hangar at RAAF Fairbairn, during 1988 - Australia's Bi-Centennial Year. (She was getting a leaking fuel pump gasket replaced. I believe that the aircraft was then operated by Bruce Andrews). The five-blade propeller mounted on the large 18 cylinder Bristol Centaurus engine makes the Fury a Fast Flyer. The aircraft was later operated by Ray Hanna at the Old Flying Machine Company (OFMC) Duxford UK, as G-BTTA in Iraqi (243) and Netherlands Navy (115) liveries, and as ZU-SEA in South Africa.
