Apologies - it was the Hawker Sea Hawk http://www.thunder-and-lightnings.co.uk/seahawk/ A pretty little thing, and notably hardy and long-lived. While we're on the FAA trail, AFAIK the Fairey Gannet never dropped anything in anger. Not strictly true. Gannets of 847 NAS were operational in Cyprus between April 56 and November 59. They were on anti-smuggling (arms) patrols and although as far as I know they never dropped anything in anger they were there to do just that should the need arise. You could used the same argument for Javelins in Malaysia. The point is that they DIDN'T drop anything in anger, no matter how prepared they were to do so. -- Peter Ying tong iddle-i po! |
