Just interested as I was attending a horse show and heard an unfamiliar engine sound (in terms of it didn’t sound like a usual aircraft) and looking into the distance I saw what looked like a Hurricane. I only had a 200mm lens with me and grabbed a few frames. Zooming in (and this is a huge pull up) I see the markings L-GZ.
Looked on Google but a search for Hurricane LG-Z and L-GZ didn’t reveal anything.
Just interested as I was pleased to see such a great aircraft randomly appear and was wondering where it is from and where it was going?

A friend of mine saw what was probably this one over Wrexham at 1350 and it returned at 1731. A Hurricane was booked for both the Ayr and Portrush Airshows.

The CAA website lists it as G-CHTK, A Canadian Hurricane Mk X owned by Peter Monk.

This could be Hurricane mk1 P2921 painted as 32 Sqn GL-Z, flown by Peter Brothers.
Don’t know who owns it though.

That’s the one from Biggin Hill, currently marked up as Peter Brothers 32 Squadron aircraft.
