HMS Queen Elizabeth ( K Armet)

It was 100 years to the day, that a Sopwith biplane, flown by Squadron Commander Edwin Dunning, touched down on the deck of HMS Furious. Sadly a week later he lost his life attempting to land again on HMS Furious, a crash landing coupled by strong winds blew him overboard.
