I had never seen or heard of a SeaFury before. I always thought the P51 was the fastest piston engine plane ever made. I was wrong! Talk about power:weight, 2,480HP and only 9,000 lbs. I also figured that to be the fastest it could not have the a radial engine - wrong again.

Such a hot aircraft, one shot down a Mig-15 during the Korean War!

Supercharged, 18 cylinder, 3300 cu. in. Bristol Centaurus, fuel injected radial engine! Do the Brits still make stuff like this?




And a massive 5 bladed prop to go with it!
