Description

The Fairey Flycatcher was a British single-seat biplane fighter
aircraft made by Fairey Aviation Company which served in the
period 1923 to 1934. The Flycatcher was a remarkable design for
its time and was one of the earliest aircraft specifically
designed for operation from aircraft carriers — flying from all
the British carriers of its era. Very popular with pilots, they
were easy to fly and very maneuverable. It was in the Flycatchers
that the Fleet Air Arm developed the combat tactics used in the
Second World War.

The Hawker Fury was a British single seat biplane fighter
aircraft used by the Royal Air Force in the 1930s. It was a fast,
agile aircraft, and holds the distinction of being the first
interceptor in RAF service to be capable of more than 200 MPH. It
had highly sensitive controls which gave it superb aerobatic
performance. It had a climb rate of almost 2,400 ft/min (730
m/min) powered by a 525 hp/391 kW Kestrel engine and was armed
with two 303 Vickers Guns, with 6000 rounds of ammunition for
each.
