HAWKER HURRICANE

The famous Hawker Hurricane was designed by Sir Sidney Camm
and first flew in 1935. The aircraft quickly surpassed expectations
and performance estimates and was ordered into quantity
production.

Although often overshadowed by the more aesthetic Spitfire, the
Hurricane was the backbone of the RAF during the Battle of Britain
of 1940. Hurricanes accounted for more enemy kills than all other
defences combined including all air and ground defences. The
aircraft later served admirably in nearly every other war theatre
in which the RAF participated.

Hurricane production expanded to include the Gloster Aircraft
Company and licence production in Yugoslavia, Belgium and
Canada. Over 14,000 were produced in total.

The CD includes the flight manuals (titled Pilot's Notes) for the
RAF and RCAF versions of the Hurricane, has been scanned from
the original flight manuals and retains any colour pages.
