HISTORIC FLIGHT TRANSFER TO NAVY WINGS
After almost 50 years displaying and demonstrating our naval aviation heritage the Royal Navy Historic Flight stood down today (1972-2019)
Over the next few months, responsibility for maintaining and flying the aircraft is expected to transfer to the charity Navy Wings, securing their long-term future flying as civilian rather than military aircraft. As the Flight stands down, all those Service and civilian personnel who have served and worked with such commitment and dedication to keep the aircraft flying over the past 48 years can be proud of their success and achievement. We salute you!
Among the collection is the Seahawk and Sea Fury FBII (pictured) both aircraft are currently awaiting maintenance to restore it to airworthy condition.
