  • An www.AVweb.com cockpit tour. The Sea Fury appeared at the end of World War II as one of a handful of piston super fighters. The CAF flew one to Sun 'N Fun and AVweb took an inside look.

    the fury/sea fury is probably the best piston engined fighter ever built, it shot down MIG 15s in korea.

    I used to look after this aircraft at the Southend Historic aircraft museum. Does anyone know where she is now?

    Cuban Air Force used them to great effect to defeat the "bay of pigs" invasion. It seems that it would indeed be faster then a P-51

      It was Canada who sold old Sea Furies to Cuba. The CIA told Kennedy, "Don't worry about their Air Force. They only have a few old prop fighter planes." Those dudes going in with B-25's and 26's to provide air cover got smeared. So much for US intel.

    What a beautiful Aircraft. I'd step over my own mother to take the controls of the Sea Fury.

    @fairclought7 I was certainly shooting down migs, but that might have something to do with the fact Migs didn't have oxygen. Sea Fury is magnificent anyway.

    • @billfarley9167

      Partly. The Fury could out turn the Migs below 20,000. No good above that altitude. I can't believe they didn't have oxygen, but if they didn't, then their ceiling for pilot safety would have been about 10,000 tops.

      Nope! Wrong.

      You know nothing. Even the last modified Spit (Mark 24) couldn't catch a Sea Fury. The closet was the Grumman F9.
