Sea Hawk FGA.6 WV911 at Yeovilton, 4th March 2011; Richard E Flagg

Possibly the country's most reclusive Sea Hawk, WV911 was hiding away at BAe Systems' airfield at Dunsfold, where photographers normally get little joy no matter how much begging they do. WV911 was not looking too bad at all back then - a bit faded, but intact!

Since Dunsfold's closure, the aircraft was road moved to Yeovilton for storage and spares, the photo above shows it in 2011 looking a bit empty.
In April of 2021, the airframe was sadly moved over to the fire training area where it can be seen today alongside a Harrier.
