Hurricane II Z3470
 

Hi,

Does anyone know if starboard side picture of crash-landed Hurricane II Z3470 exist too ? P/O Hawkins was shot by flak down in this machine on 26th October 1941. I know about two snapshots but both show port side.
Any comments much appreciated.

Kind regards,
Michal

Hi Alex,

Yes another picture is there but unfortunately the one known to me.
I think I saw a picture of starboard side on E-bay some months ago but cannot find it in my database ...

Michal
