One of the Hawker Hurricane Fighters photographed at Northolt Aerodrome, Northolt
One of the Hawker Hurricane Fighters photographed at Northolt Aerodrome, Northolt, Middlesex, West of London, with a Squadron formation of 9 aircraft flying at low altitude. One of this type recently flew from Edinburgh to London at an average speed of 408.75 MPH.
The Hawker Hurricane is a British single-seat fighter aircraft of the 1930s-40s that was designed and predominantly built by Hawker Aircraft Ltd. for service with the Royal Air Force (RAF). It was overshadowed in the public consciousness by the Supermarine Spitfires role during the Battle of Britain in 1940, but the Hurricane inflicted 60 per cent of the losses sustained by the Luftwaffe in the engagement, and fought in all the major theatres of the Second World War

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring sight of one of the Hawker Hurricane Fighters at Northolt Aerodrome, located in Middlesex, West of London. The image showcases a squadron formation of nine aircraft flying at low altitude, showcasing their remarkable harmony and teamwork. The Hawker Hurricane is an iconic British single-seat fighter aircraft that played a crucial role during the 1930s-40s. Designed and predominantly built by Hawker Aircraft Ltd. , it served with distinction in the Royal Air Force (RAF) during World War II. While often overshadowed by the Supermarine Spitfire's fame, this formidable aircraft inflicted 60 percent of losses sustained by the Luftwaffe during the pivotal Battle of Britain in 1940. Notably, one particular Hurricane recently completed an impressive journey from Edinburgh to London at an average speed of 408.75 MPH, highlighting its exceptional capabilities even decades after its initial design. This photograph was taken on March 5th, 1938 - a snapshot frozen in time that encapsulates both the beauty and power of these historic warplanes soaring through clear skies. As we gaze upon this image today, it serves as a symbol not only of aviation history but also as a reminder of those who bravely fought for peace during times marked by conflict and turmoil.
