I believe the ex-Yugoslavian Hurricane had fabric covered wings.

Re: Was there an italian Hurricane??
It is ex-Yugoslav and due to some search it had metal covered wings. How to place picture here?

Re: Was there an italian Hurricane??
I belive the Zamaj may have been fabric wing.
Note the placement of the landing light. It was further outboard of the guns on a metal wing. Top pic is metal, bottom is a Zamaj built, captured by the Italians http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/attach...1&d=1143901099 http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/attach...1&d=1143901099

Hi
The color drawings and some photos printed on some web side comming from my story, which is exactly about this topics. She was printed by G. Apostolo in his Italian magazine as: Gli Hurricane Italiani / Italian Hurricanes, p. 13, 21 b&w, 2 color sites Hurricane-Zmaj BR.2337 in RA markings, about 20.000 signes, [in:] Aerofan Storia di Ali Italiane, Apr.-Giu. 2003 N.85. Text is 100% Italian-English. This is extended, corrected version taken from one chapter of my book about Hurricanes in Foreign Service. Hurricane in Foreign Service (Belgium, Finland, Yugoslavia, Germany, Italy, Rumania, Soviet Union). Hurricane w obcej służbie (Belgia, Finlandia, Jugosławia, Niemcy, Włochy, Rumunia, ZSRR), p. 72, ISBN 83-9114521-0-7, 120 b&w, 37 color sides, Ajaks, Warszawa 2001. So far, I have not yet found any more detailed information about this particular subject. All the best Mirek Wawrzyński, an author of both printed material, :-)
