    Thanks for the suggestion John, but as ‘Sopwith’ alluded to, I am after a list of Hurricanes with their histories. Looks like this hasn’t been done yet, ala the Spitfire histories which are available in several places

    Ah, thank you John. 

    I have Leo’s book on the Spitfire, but wasn’t aware he’d done one on the Hurricane as well.

    I’ll chase it up, appreciate the lead. Thank you.

    The exercise has been done for the Spitfire. I was hoping it may also have been done for the Hurricane. There were MANY more Spitfires built, so the Hurricane would be a doodle by comparison…. 🙂

    Thanks guys, appreciate the leads. However, I am looking for information on ALL Hurricanes, a complete listing so to speak, not just survivors.

    Battle of Britain thingy? ‘Panzer John’, that looks really interesting – can you help with more information on those items please?

    Thanks

    Thank you everyone for your help and information. Very much appreciated, and very interesting.

    Never ceases to amaze me the number of changes a plane went through within Mark. Then there are modifications and updates later in operational life!

    Brilliant photos Paul, thank you for sharing. Another piece in the puzzle. I hadn’t noticed that wire from the crash bar before – part of the harness system by the look of it (?)

    Yes, unfortunately not much in the way of schematics around for this installation. I wonder what the team referred to with their restoration (?). I will try to contact them for any info.

    How fortunate were you to get so close to this marvelous plane! Well done sir, I envy you.

    Thanks again,
