Must say I scoffed when this appeared on the Legends participation page. Well done to all concerned for finally getting it in the air so I can eat my hat! Looks pretty gorgeous :)

Thanks for pointing that out, Mark12 - a lovely pair of photos. Well done to the pilots and lensman(woman?). Now I'm even more jealous of those attending the show.

I think it looks beautiful, with such an interesting scheme. Has the hook the ability to extend AND retract in flight?? Are the Grace Family the owners? Thanks for sharing the links to the images Mark 12.
K5054NZ, the lens woman (Daisy) is closely connected with the Graces if I remember correctly.

An air to air photo sortie with the Shuttleworth Sea Hurricane would be special .

The Grace family are not the owners, they are the current operators. The ownership remains unchanged.

Evokes emotions similar to that when the Shuttleworth Sea Hurricane took to the air. An unbelievably attractive paint scheme.
