1/48 Airfix Hawker Hurricane Mk1

--------------------

 

This is my 1/48 Airfix Hawker Hurricane.  This model was made right out of the box in 1998.  The aircraft  represents a 501 (County of Gloucester) bSqn.,R Aux AF at RAF Kenley, Surrey, October 1940.  Paint used were as usual Testors, only part added to the model is 200lb bombs beneath the wings.
The Hawker Hurricane came to be regarded as one of the most rugged and reliable fighter aircraft in the RAF service and it was undoubtedly the best fighter in the "Battle of Britain". 
I hope you like this model.
