dnl42 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Just received this email from Vintage Wings of Canada Quote Getting It Right Ladies and Gentlemen Aviators Later this year, our fully-restored Hawker Hurricane MkXII will take to the skies over the Gatineau Hills for the first time. It will be painted to commemorate a Mk I from the Battle of Britain flown by Canadian uber-ace Flying Officer William Lidstone McKnight, the highest scoring pilot in Douglas Bader's 242 “Canadian” Squadron of the RAF. We are in the final steps of completion and the fuselage has just emerged from the paint booth in the markings of McKnight's LE-A (Serial No. P2961). On this, the 95th birthday of the Royal Canadian Air Force, we thought you would enjoy a sneak peek at the result of months of painstaking research. http://www.vintagewings.ca/VintageNews/Stories/tabid/116/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/619/Getting-It-Right.aspx Quote Link to post Share on other sites
