About The Album
A Detailed Guide To The Fleet Air Arm's Last Piston-engine Fighter
The Hawker "Sea Fury" is an excellent example of the suitability of the Bristol sleeve valve engine for carrier-borne fighters. Large numbers of this aircraft are in service all over the world, and production still continues. Its outstanding take-off and combat performance, and its long endurance, makes it particularly suitable for naval operations. Its all-round qualities have resulted in many also being employed as land based fighters. The aerodynamic design of the power plant is exceptionally clean, and an extremely low drag is achieved. Very little maintenance is required by the sleeve valve engine, and its simple air cooling system requires small attention from the pilot, whatever climatic condition is encountered.
