This skin depicts the second production F2A-1, BuNo 1387.

RNoAF Mk.IIc |
|
|
Hawker Hurricane Mk.IIc, Royal Norwegian Air Force.
Delivered to No.22 MU in 1944, was a period at No.1695 Bombing Development
Flight, after that placed in stock. The machine originally had serial number
LF575, but this was cancelled at the transfer to RNoAF. It was given to
RNoAF in 1947 and went to Luftforsvarets Tekniske Skolesenter (LTS) (The Air
Defense Technical School Center) in Kjevik. It was only used as instruction
material; later it was put aside for a future museum.
However it was damage when the hangar roof collapsed because of large snow
quantity in March 1954, and after that it was scrapped.
Information comes from IPMS Limtuben Vol.3 No. 2, from an article about
Kjevik Airfields 50 years anniversary written by Bjørn Hafsten.
Special thanks goes to Bjørnar Norås for providing the 3 view images I have
used to make this skin. |

Quantico, Virginia 1941
This is part of a series that will comprise all eighteen SBD-1's of VMB-1 in
their colorful prewar livery. They are weathered only slightly because,
having spent a little time in Marine aviation long ago, I *know* that these
new aircraft would have been well kept! |
