One Hurricane for Larry
Hello,
Long time ago, I promised a picture for Larry Hickey. Hopefully I found it back. It shows an anonymous Hurricane, said crash-landed near Genappe (30 km South of Brussels). Perhaps this picture came through ebay and someone had already seen it (if not identified). The closest match should be Hurricane N2426 crash-landed by Sgt Cartwright (79 Sqn) on the 16/05/40 at Rêves (5 km S of Genappe). The wreckage was carefully dismantled and kept in a barn four years before Germans took it away in... August '44. Only the valves cover survives up today. Perhaps nothing interesting but anecdote worths it Best regards ClinA-78 Last edited by ClinA-78; 9th September 2013 at 18:08.
