• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Background:
The Canadian Navy operated two types of Firefly trainers: The T Mk 1 and the T Mk 2. The T Mk 1 being a two-seat dual control, unarmed, deck landing conversion trainer which differed from the F Mk 1 in having a rear cockpit for the instructor being raised by 12 inches above the normal position. This was to improve the vision by its occupant in landing. The T Mk 2 was the tactical weapons trainer having two 20mm cannons and a synchronised Gyro gun sight in each cockpit. The trainers were fitted with a VHF (TR5043, SCR522) radar and AN/APN-1 radio altimeter, and AN/ARR-2 homer and AN/ARL-5 radio range, and AN/APX-2 IFF.
On 24th May 1948 four T1s were transported on Magnificent prior to departure for Canada for the first time. These were added to the RCN aircraft complement among other types as the Firefly Mk IV and Sea Fury. Of these four dual trainers two were sent at the end of March 1949 to Fairey Aviation of Canada at Shearwater for conversion to T Mk 2 and by the end of February 1950 both conversions were completed. From that point onwards until their retirement, complete overhaul and non-service repair work was conducted at Fairey Aviation.
