Hi all,
I’m currently trying to paint and compile a skin pack of all the worlds airworthy Hurricanes for the game IL2:Forgotten Battles. I’ve a few completed already, but upon visiting the Warbird registry stumbled upon this aircraft:
http://www.warbirdregistry.org/hurriregistry/hurricane-p2902.html
Can anyone inform me of it’s whereabouts and if it has indeed flown or is currently airworthy. I must admit at having never heard of it’s existance.
Thanks in advance guys and gals.
regards,

Cheers, was just looking at the G-INFO site and saw that an application for C of A has been received, and ‘change of C and A details in progress’, does anyone know what this means? The page is here http://www.caa.co.uk/application.aspx?categoryid=60&pagetype=65&applicationid=1&mode=detail&aircrafttype=hurricane&dataindex=9
Also, for the HAC Hurricane Mk XII it says ‘Change of C and A details in progress’, anyone know what this means as well? Hopefully won’t be leaving the UK like the TFC’s and possibly Breightons!

Sorry to drag this one up, just wondered if anyone knew anything more about this Hurricane, ie when is it’s expected completion date seeming as the one rumoured earlier in the thread should be soon, be great to have another Hurri in the air!

>>There are even reports that it is going to be restored as a 2-seater!
<<Ummmmm…….NOPE!!!!!

AFAIK and happy to be corrected
P3717 is the only one going to be converted to a 2 seater and it may ever be ‘convertable’
i.e single or 2 seater

Being restored at a secret location ‘somewhere in England’. Should be gracing our skies by Spring ’06. (Horses mouth)
If I tell you anymore I’ll have to kill ya! 😉

Thanks for your speedy reply Mike.
I did wonder myself. It’s just this piece of text on the Registry that put me off a little bit:
Richard A. Roberts, Billingshurst, Sept. 19, 1994-2002.
– Registered as G-ROBT.
– Restored to airworthy, Suffolk, 1994-2001.
– Flown as P2902/DX-X.
I wonder where they got their information from!
Thanks again
