On the 9th of August, 1952, S.Lt Brian 'Schmoo' Ellis, of 802 Naval Air Squadron was flying his Sea Fury FBII in a finger four formation over Pyongyang when his flight was bounced by several MiG 15's.
The Sea Fury was a hugely powerful piston engine aircraft, but theoretically outclassed by the jets. However, jets are at a disadvantage when dogfighting. During the melee, S.Lt Ellis famously shot down one of the MiG's and his colleagues damaged two more before they broke away to find safety to the north.
