Hawker Hurricane Pilot Photos

Can anyone please assist with tracing of Photographs of Pilots who flew Hurricanes Pre-war, France and up to the Battle of Britain, whether on Squadron or Training, Single Portrait or Group shots.

I have for many years been collecting information on the Early Hurricanes and now the aim is to compile a book on the subject.

My aim is to add photos of the Pilots who flew these Aircraft, what better way to Commemorate them.

Thank you
Hurri600

Hi, Hurri600:

At Brooklands we have all the copies of Flight and The Aeroplane magazines of the 30's and 40's., they contain many such photo's. Have you investigated the old Flight magazines that are "on-line"???

Pm me if you would like further information.....

Regards,

Andy Bigweeker

Re: Hawker Hurricane Pilot Photos
