Reaching for the sky. A Mk 1 Hawker Hurricane - G-HUPW / R4118 - taking-off from IWM Duxford in September 2024. This one is the most original from the Battle of Britain and is operated by Hurricane Heritage.

The stunning @HurricaneR4118 flew her 49th & last #BattleOfBritain sortie OTD in 1940 - damaged in aerial combat. Thankfully she would be repaired & after more than 5 decades in India she would return to the UK. Very grateful to have this historic aircraft still gracing our skies

This year's @AbingdonFayre may have been delayed and faced additional challenges with the display aircraft unable to operate from the airfield, but the organisers still put on a great event last weekend. Next year's show is due to take place on Saturday 14th June!

The view from the back of the “Big Wing” at yesterday’s Battle of Britain Airshow, Duxford. A very special way to commemorate Battle of Britain Day. @IWMDuxford @ACDuxford

Just three of the seven aircraft we had in formation back on August 10th - myself in the two-seater Hawker Hurricane, with James Brown in the Mk. I R4118, and in the foreground is the French-built version of the Messerschmitt Bf108, the Nord 1002 Pingouin…@HurricaneR4118

Once the band of thunderstorms had cleared through yesterday, it was a beautiful evening for flying. Duxford to Waltham, 7pm
