These photographs were taken at the Air Display at the Yorkshire Air Museum at RAF Elvington on a damp and overcast day in July 2010.
It's a Supermarine Seafire Mk
XVII, which was the naval development of the Spitfire. SX336 (G-KASX) was built by Westland Aircraft in 1946
and served with various units in the Royal Navy before it was scrapped in 1955.
It was recovered in the 1970s as a bare fuselage and after a few owners, went
to Tim Manna of Kennet Aviation to finish the restoration, taking to the air for the first time
since restoration in 2006.
