Fairey Firefly, Naval aviation art prints of the Fairey Firefly in original naval aviation art print by Ivan Berryman HMS Theseus by Ivan Berryman

The Fairey Fireflywas a aircraft carrier borne fighter aircraft of the Fleet Air Arm   It was superior in performance and firepower to the Fulmer its predecessor, but did not enter operational service until towards the end of the war. The primary variant of the Fairy Firefly used during World war two was the Mk I, which was used in all theatres .  The first Firefly Mk Is was delivered  in March 1943 but they did not enter operational service until July 1944  with 1770 Squadron on HMS Indefatigable. Its first operations were in Europe where Fireflies made armed reconnaissance and anti-shipping strikes  along the Norwegian coast.  And in 1944 Fireflies also provided air cover during strikes on the Tirpitz

 The Firefly was used in many roles from fighter and also in anti submarine warfare and mainly used in the Pacific and Far East. Fireflies carried out attacks on oil refineries and  was the first British-designed and -built aircraft to over fly Tokyo.  , the Firefly remained in service after the war in the UK, and also in Canada, Australia, Denmark and the Netherlands  British and Australian Fireflies carried out anti-shipping patrols and ground strikes off various aircraft carriers during the Korean War and also in ground attack roles during the Malaysian campaign.   It remained a mainstay of the FAA until the mid-1950s when its role was taken by the Gannet

View All		 As the sun slowly begins to rise this wintry morning over Thorpe Abbots, Norfolk, ground crew prepare B-17G The All American Girl in an almost surreal setting, for her 99th dangerous mission over enemy territory. On 10th January 1945, 19-year-old pilot, 1st Lt. John Dodrill and his crew went missing on a combat sortie to Cologne. Like many other crews, they made the ultimate sacrifice in the fight for freedom, with the Bloody Hundredth Bombardment Group playing its full part with courage and honour.

Half Price - £70.00 		In the skies just west of Amiens on 20th April 1918, the celebrated German ace, Manfred von Richthofen, the Red Baron, flying his famous all-red Fokker DR.1 Triplane 425/17 and accompanied by other DR.1s of his notorious Flying Circus, encountered Sopwith Camels of No.3 and No.201 Squadrons and a fierce aerial battle ensued. Two Sopwith Camels were to fall to the Red Baron's guns that day, the first of them being Major Richard Raymond-Barker, shown here flicking his aircraft to the right to avoid the German's fire. Raymond-Barker was almost immediately shot down, his burning aircraft being consumed by fire on impact. Just minutes later, Second Lieutenant David Lewis was caught and despatched, these two British scouts being the last ever victims of Baron von Richthofen.

Half Price - £650.00 		The Vulcan B2 of 50 Squadron heads to Ascension Island from its base at Waddington, where it had been completely overhauled, including the fitting of a refuelling probe, which had to be found from various stores at Catterick, Goosebay in Labrador, Canada, and Wright-Patterson Airfield in Ohio, USA. The Vulcan would take part in the seven planned bombing missions during the Falklands campaign codenamed Operation Black Buck. Each mission would require a solo Vulcan Bomber (plus an airborne reserve Vulcan in case of problems with the first) to fly and bomb the Argentinean airfield at Port Stanley, requiring the support of 12 Handley Page Victor K2 tankers of 55 and 57 squadron on the outward journey and 2 Victors and a Nimrod on the return journey.

Half Price - £1000.00 		In a time when loyalty to one club is a rare commodity, Manchester United have managed to maintain the services of Salford born Paul Sholes since he graduated from being a trainee in 1991. Since then Paul has featured in over 400 games for the Red Devils and at the same time has had a distinguished England career of 65 caps. Paul's versatility means Sir Alex ferguson has used him in many different positions though he is most effective playing behind the front two, where he can time his runs into the penalty area to devastating effect. Paul Scoles has scored some spectacular goals and has assisted in countless more. Paul will go down in Old Trafford history as one of United's best and most consistent players of the last 25 years.
