Er Guys.... if Papa's correct on this and I've no reason to doubt him, why did the Quigley Collective mistake an American twin engined, mass produced, twin tailed medium bomber from Roy Chadwick's four engined Masterpiece ?
It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got a Spring

I felt sure it was a Hurricane with the broad rounded wingtips (Spitfire more pointy wingtips!)

More like a Hurricane than a Spit but there was talk among the Guys back on the shooting line when we returned.John- Do you recall the small singe engine low winged plane we saw and I commented on?

There are less flying Hurricanes than Spitfires so to see one flying is mega rare !

I may only have 5 but I have the best 5
I thought it was a hurricane too. But the person I mentioned it to didn't think it sounded like a merlin. Can't think what else it could be though. I think that there are about 8 airworthy hurricanes around. As opposed to about 55 spitfires. And that number is rising

To be honest I thought the wings were a little too broad to be a Hurricane and the fuselage was very slim.

I didn't have my glasses handy when it came over. Wracking my brain the only alternative I can come up with is a P40. There are a few about, 1 based at elstree & 1 at Duxford that I can think of
