Great shots of some wonderful aircraft. The Firefly appears to be a Firefly NF.MkI or NF.MkII as witnessed by the shrouded exhaust and radar nacelles on the wing.
The R.C.A.F. took on strength a grand total of one Fairey Firefly MkI in 1947 and sent it to Namao as part of the W.E.E. (Winter Experimental Establishment)
A great aircraft with many battle honours to it's credit.
