Re: E-bay founds - Hurricane, probably France 1940

You can see the gun-trough on the upper cowl, and make out the right gun blast tube in the exposed upper nose structure. So not a French Morane 406 or Dewoitine 520 - both of which has spinner cannon blast tube and wing mounted machine guns.
I haven't spend much time reading up on Yak-1's but a quick check on wiki and others show cannon-in-spinner and mg-on-top-of-nose-cowling arrangement. If others are in agreement then, seems a good choice.
