FlyingPenguin Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Should be starting this fairly soon. Will be using the one based at Rochford, Essex (not in Kent, which was a mistake on the instruction sheet). Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetrOs Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Hey Looks like a nice project! But, it is a Hurricane with the canvas covered wing, so an extremely early one. I am not quite sure if these were still flying in the front line. From what I remember most received the newer wings by the time. However, I also think everything what was able to fly was sent up when the losses amassed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If CA are correct then 56 Squadron whilst based at Rochford around the early part of August would have had fabric wings (particular one with serial N2400). Although they placed Rochford in Kent, which I know to be wrong . Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
