Fabulous! Got any more? I'm especially intrigued by the Corsair without
clipped wings!

Great mix! 2 Seafires, a Corsair, 1 Martlet, 2 Barracudas and a nose I
can't identify. Very nice pic.

As a fan of the FAA, thank you!


Having blown the picture up and used a fair amount of imagination, I think
the unidentified nose sticking out of the hanger to the left is second Sea
Hurricane, and behind it a whole bunch of mechanics are swarming over a
third. Is the second Seafire the one behind the two Barracudas?


I thought that was another Martlet, something about the height and the
dihedral of the wing?
