Can anyone help with info on the recovery of Hurricane R4074, From 46 Squadron, Stapleford. Which was shot down and crashed at Newchurch, Kent. Tuesday October 22 1940, killing the young pilot, J.P. Morrison.
I know the Kent Battle of Britain Museum have some relics from the site, but was it ever fully excavated, and if so does anyone know what was found?
Thanks for your time.
Old Towzer.

It doesn’t really help on the recovery issue but this crash was discussed here nearly twenty years ago (q.v. https://www.key.aero/forum/historic-aviation/11671-battle-of-britain-hurricane)
