The Sea Fury T.20 G-RNHF/VX281/VL-120 was destroyed during a forced landing following a loss of engine power. The 1950 Hawker Sea Fury T Mk 20 took off from RNAS Yeovilton at 14:09 on a local training flight. Following a loss of engine power the pilot attempted to turn back to the airport. The aircraft failed to reach the runway and came down in a field, about 1 km from the threshold of runway 01. Both occupants suffered minor injuries.
