A few family ties with Blackpool. Vickers, Lancashire Aircraft Corporation, Hawker, Silver City, Autair, Britannia, BIA, Monarch plus a few more. If you turn the camera round you will see Abbey Road, where I used to live. Seafire VP441 now in Montana with Jim Smith?

Seafang
What is the aircraft type and what happened to this particular aircraft?
Sorry chaps, belay me last pipe - it's likely Seafire FR47 VP441. - like wot Temps said above - should have looked more closely and read his post properly too - now apparently beautifully restored and flying.

Could it have caught the arrestor cable a bit too fast? Happened to 'Winkle' at Farnborough when he was testing a Sea Fury, and the bit he was in not only got airborne, but he managed to land it!
One of the old assistants at Farnborough was a 'radio operator' when it happened, and he told me 'Winkle' said 'oh dear how annoying'!

We're in Colombia mate, one of the locations illustrated below....

The "Stage House", where nervous students awaited the outcome of Sea Hawk flight by their comrades - and critique from US instructors.

That building on the left looks German/Austrian.
Edit......but on the other hand, the topography looks Danish.

Isn't it between Hundsheim and Prellenkirchen?
Isn't it funny? Probably only airport in Austria I stood by and observed departing and landing a/c and here it is…
Anyway…
One of the hills behind is a place where an airliner crashed around 50 years ago.
