I was a Sea Cadet, in the Navy League in 1952. I had been given to have leave from school to go away with the HMAS Cootamundra for a week. Before we anchored in Jervis Bay, a Sea Fury flew over, real close and the pilot gave us a wave. I actually thought he was waving at me personally!
Saw one the Australian Navy Sea Fury flying around HMAS Cerberus in Victoria, Australia during the 1960/70's, towing a drone which was used for Gunnery practice at the Navy establishment training depot. An absolutely awesome sound. I will never forget it.
A few years ago I was lucky to pull into Yeoviltons (HMS Heron) museum car park just as they were starting to put their Fury through its paces. As I climbed out of the car that engine note hit me and I froze in sheer awe watching the pilot, presumably, practising his airshow routine. I think that if a fire breathing dragon had appeared and started flying around I couldn't have been more awestruck. Hmm... well I suppose some may say that's what it is ;)
Several years ago I took my father to RNAS Yoevilton to the FAA museum. He walked up to Carmichaels Sea Fury, stroked it and said, "I used to work on this Aeroplane." RIP Dad.
Yes - but this has a better chance of staying in the air due to the higher reliability of the R-2800. Just look at how many Centaurus’ have had in flight failures in recent years.@@michaelgray7847
There are NO Centaurus engines left in any flying Sea Furys! There are no parts left to repair the Centaurus engine so all of the flying Sea Furys have either a P&W engine or a Wright engine. The P&W 4360's and the Wright 3350's power the Reno Air Race Sea Furys.
@@ronmartin121 well that's a little sad to hear, I must admit I failed to pickup on that point when I watched the clip, had I had my volume up I might have noticed the lack of chuff chuff from the sleeve action that usually accompanied a Centaurus. Thanks for the info🙏
Always an impressive performer of their era, so graceful to watch. The sound is also equally evocative of piston engined aircraft at their peak of development. What more could you want! Simply fabulous.😉👍
Bristol Centaurus is an entirely different kind of radial than the Pratts. It is a sleeve valve engine as opposed to the Pratt, which is a poppet valve engine.
The plane is Christophe Jacquard's one. The pilot is Bruno Ducreux the boss of Aero Restauration Service in France. He was my boss in 2005/2007. A great and pationate person and a wonderfull aerobatic pilot!
That's a pretty fantastic sounding bird for sure. I always listen for the higher pitch supercharger preceding the engine growl during low fly dive passes.
Saw a Sea Fury at an early Wanaka show - its speed and vertical power were stunning. One of the best shows, with the Hanna’s flying their BF109 and Spitfire and an unpainted freshly restored Kittyhawk being flown hard among the many highlights.
Benny Hill - This Fury is NOT powered by its original 54l engine. For ease of maintenance, it's packing a Pratt & Whitney R2800, an equally legendary engine, but quite a bit smaller at ~46l.
@@Jack-bs6zb I just like Benny Hill so using his name. Nothing else behind it. May change it one day to Ducky Duck to match the name with the picture, hehe.
This is one beautiful fighter , It almost looks like a spitfire with the end of the wings squared off and a little longer nose that’s rounded which gives it a really nice look.
I had the pleasure of seeing a Sea Fury regularly, when I was in the RAAF, in Darwin, it lived in the hangar and was taken out regularly by the owner for flights. Occasionally, when civillian air trafic was low he did low level passes up the strip, never a better sound or sight.
Yep that was Guido Zuccoli who had a huge workshop in Winnellie next to the airport where he employed specialist engineers to restore ww2 aircraft and sold them all over the world. Guido had many gifts, among them a mathematical skill which was legendary. He was a great cook and loved experimenting with exotic dishes, preserves and making genuine Italian salamis. He had a love of Opera, but above everything a love of life itself. His view on life was summed up with his oft used quote ... “If I die tomorrow, I can say I have done everything I have dreamt of doing. I have a wonderful life.” Sadly, that wonderful life ended in 1997. The WW II Harvard aircraft he was flying had a catastrophic engine failure on take-off from Tindal (the RAAF and Civilian airport at Katherine, NT).
I disagree completely. Seeing the smoke join into rings and curl into fantastic geometric shapes was fascinating. I kinda wish there was a second camera watching the planes wash effect on the smoke.
Thanks for sharing this video I have been to this event at Degerfeldt before and would have loved to go there again this year to see this magnificent Sea Fury :-) unfortunately COVID has got in the way.
When did the RAN have this colour scheme - I have tracked video back to 1951 when the Sea Fury had the dark grey over light grey (green) scheme. The first Sea Furies were delievered to HMAS Sydney in the UK in 1949 two years earlier so is this Blue actually a British colour already on the delivered aircraft and changed when the aircraft got back to Australia in late 1949.
@@VellaCharles thanks for the reply, I'm in New Zealand. So sorry, wont be making purchase, postage would be more than the model. Lol thumbs up with your build though
Ich weiß noch das display 2013 von der hahnweide, das hab ich heute noch als legendär in erinnerung, wie dieser flieger mit einem affenzahn in riesigen kreisen hin und her flog.
Its was built to compete with the FW-190D. The Sea Fury is a beautiful aircraft with a nasty bite. I can say my grandfather flew that plane in the early 60s, he said the Sea Fury was one of the best aircraft he ever flew. Great Video thank you. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@conorf8091 Sadly my life is too busy for that (and those games are too addictive) But I have 2 games on my phone, one with tanks and one with planes, my Me 262 and Bf 109 G6 are painted black/blue actually (with some yellow markings) and they look great, this plane reminded me of them
It’s correct engine was significantly more efficient per CC than the P&W installed, the engine had significantly more development potential which wasn’t pursued due to the advent of the jet age.
Never seemed to working at the edge of the envelope at anytime,no stress, not even breathing hard. Looked like Dobermann going for quick lope in the park. The smoke was a bit overdone, a quarter of that volume would have been the right effect.
I would rather give them to Hugh Dowding and say 'I have an idea, lets give this to Mr. Hawker and Mr A.V. Roe'. Besides, the FW.190 did not have a radial engine, it just looked like it had a radial engine. One can see the design influences of the Hawker Tempest in the wing and fuselage profile.
Think this is the Pratt and Whitney version - 4 bladed prop, not the Bristol centaurus. Beautiful aircraft, wish I had the dollars and skill to fly one
This Sea Fury was equipped with a Wright 3350 in 2009 when the rebuild of it was finished. I didn't know they took that out and put a R2800 in it. When did this occur?
Looking at the side profile when I read your comment. Definitely saw the resemblance. If what is said is true about it being designed and based on a captured 190....that make sense it would look similar lol. However the other dude says it isn't true. Guess I'll just have to go do the reading myself lol.
Thanks for flying that Sea Fury like it was designed to be flown , beautiful !!!
Hear here! to often these days the birds are never flown to their potential

The pinnacle of piston powered pursuits.
(Standing on the shoulders of giants, sorry)

Just incredible power. Sometimes videos don't do justice, this one is just obvious. It IS impressive huh?
Without question, one of the finest machines ever created by human beings.

Even modern planes don't look as beastly and aggressive as this beauty
Considering beastiness I prefer the FW - 190 short nose
Absolutely beautiful!! 👍😁 Hawker really knew how to build fighters.👌
If it isn't using a Bristol Centaurus engine,then it is not truly a genuine Fury .
Pretty close to genuine though.

What more could you want!
Simply fabulous.😉👍
Just positively SPECTACULOSO! STUPENDOUS!
This Sea Fury may not have the original Centaurus, but good lord that sounds phenomenal in a dive and flyby, really unique sound!
Yes I was wondering what it’s now powered by.
what a gorgeous and smooth running war bird.
Saw one of these perform at Oshkosh..Makes the P51 seem underpowered!!
P51 was more about range
What a beautiful sight but the sound is even more amazing.....
Thx watching mate
Beautiful. Love the way the camera has difficulty keeping the Sea Fury in frame.
Bristol Centaurus is an entirely different kind of radial than the Pratts. It is a sleeve valve engine as opposed to the Pratt, which is a poppet valve engine.
That sleeve valve Centaurus was 20 percent more fuel efficient than the Pratt also.
Superb. The power in those huge vertical manoeurvres, just a joy to watch.
He’s flying that! Love it!
Fabulous plane, fabulously flown!
What a pretty plane. And it sounds incredible
Nice video of a great display of an awesome aircraft 👍

This is no. 115. I saw 114 fly in New Zealand when I was a kid. Both ex RAAF

What a tool! And beautiful too.
Wow ! One fast plane !
Amazing piston engined plane
My favourite aircraft by far! What a sound! I seem to remember some has a 5 blade prop (or was that the Tempest?) Love the Blue paint. Awesome!
The five blade would have been powered by a Bristol Centaurus whilst this appears to be turning the other way. I’m thinking Wright 3350?
The sound is Mega
I love these old war birds.
