About this product

Product Information

Though less iconic than the nimble Spitfire, the Hawker Hurricane was a vital stalwart in the British war effort. The Hurricane was a more stable gun platform than the Spitfire, more rugged, and was used in more challenging theatres of war. An amazing array of leaflets, books and manuals were issued by the Air Ministry during the Second World War to aid pilots flying the Hawker Hurricane fighter. Here, for the first time, they are collated into a single book. An introduction is supplied by expert aviation historian Dilip Sarkar. Sections include Pilots' Notes, aircraft recognition and combat reports.

  • 'THE' Hurricane Manual

    This is a reprint of the full 1940 manual for this iconic aircraft, exactly what would have been studied by the pilots themselves. Exactly what "The Few" would have read! Not as weighty as the original manual, so easy to read anywhere. Recommended reading for the WW2 RAF enthusiast or as a great example of social history. I just wish there was a Hurricane parked nearby. "Chocks away!"
