Re-Enactor dressed as a Battle of Britain pilot "waits for a scramble" with his Hawker Hurricane fighter


Hawker Hurricane Mk 1 R4118 is the only surviving Battle of Britain Hurricane. It made 49 sorties during the Battle and shot down five enemy aircraft before being shot down itself. Rescued from India in 1995, it flew again after a three-year restoration. It is considered to be the most historic British aircraft to survive in flying condition from WWII
