Cees–
Thanks for the vector. That’s a new one to me. Always wondered whether any of the Russian Hurricanes were CC&F-built. (After the CWH hangar fire I used to nurture the fantasy that the lamented Mk.XII could be replaced by an ex-Russia project, which if it were CC&F-built like this one, could have received Cultural Property status in Canada. Sadly the lost Hurricane was “replaced” only with a GRP facsimile.)

John bought the two Hurricane projects that were for sale in Canada about five years ago. He has been slowly working on the first aircraft for about three years, and is starting to make tangible progress.
Both airframes were ex Russia.
