VBF-12_Stick-95 1056 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 (edited) This is a historic skin based on a Hurricane MkIIa flown by RAF 71st Squadron, one of three Eagle Squadrons of American volunteers. The USAF Museum in Ohio displays a Hurricane with these markings in honor of the Eagle Squadrons. Serial number Z3174 is one of the Block 5 Hurricanes produced by Hawker Aircraft with a Rolls-Royce Merlin XX engine and was delivered to the squadron between 14th Jan 1941 to 28th July 1941.

VBF-12_Stick-95 1056 Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 (edited) This is a historical skin based on Hurricane Mk.IIb Serial No. Z5054 that was assigned to the 402nd RCAF Squadron. It was a Block 3/G built by by the Gloster Aircraft Co. The squadron received the plane between July 1940 and August 1941. The plane was coded as AE-Q and flown by Graham David "Robbie" Robertson. Robertson was posted overseas on 16 December 1940 to No.2 Squadron RCAF, which later became the 402nd. He was promoted to Flight Sergeant on 1 September 1941 then to Pilot Officer on 20 December 1941. He was transferred to 421st Squadron on 12 June 1942 and to other units through the course of the war. He survived the war, was repatriated to Canada in 1945 and and was released from service in Toronto on 24 August 1945. Throughout the war he was credited with 5&1/2 kills, a probable kill and 2&1/2 damaged. Photo left: Hawker Hurricane (Serial No. 5054), coded AE-Q, Sgt. K.B. Handley talking with Sgt. G.D.

VBF-12_Stick-95 1056 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 @Melonfish After following your instructions it worked like a charm.

Low and behold it was you. So, my humble apologies for giving you an uninformed answer. At the time I had no idea there was an additional template that held the answer.

VBF-12_Stick-95 1056 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) I am submitting a pack of four historic skins for the 309th RAF Squadron. They were one of the Poland squadrons and flew the Mk.IIc from April to September of 1944. During that time frame they did not see much action however you can change all that. I hope these skins honor the service of all Polish pilots during the war. The planes are from Block 10 produced by Hawker Aircraft. The squadron inherited the planes from another unit after being downgraded from the Mustang MkI. The plane IDs and serial numbers match actual. Hope you enjoy flying these as much as I did making them. Download link: https://www.mediafire.com/file/auzv5b91i8xlccq/HurricaneMkIIc_309_RAF.zip/file Also available on HSD. And thanks to ICDP for the template and Melonfish for his help on the S-guns. Edited March 23 by VBF-12_Stick-95 14 6 Link to post Share on other sites

[-=BP=-]Slegawsky_VR 482 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) Strange that the downgrade from Mustangs to worn out Hurricanes MkIV and later to MkIIC Heres some details: " In January 1944, in view of the planned invasion of the continent, the fighter-reconnaissance squadrons were reorganized. The decision was made to transform No. 309 Squadron into a fighter-bomber unit. Little disappointed Poles exchanged their Mustangs for worn-out Hurricanes Mk. IVs. Now their role was to bomb targets on the Dutch coast. The aircraft range, however, proved to be insufficient, and in April the squadron exchanged them for Mk. IICs, and equally fatigued lot. Meantime, S/Ldr Golko became the unit’s new CO, who strangely enough was a bomber pilot with no experience on fighters. On 23 April, with new old planes, the 309 was detailed off to RAF Drem in Scotland, to defend the area against German riders flying from Norway bases. The Hurricane was a vintage fighter plane during the Battle of Britain, but in 1944 it was obsolete and expelled even for most of OTUs. The squadron’s pilots were yet again deeply disappointed. Other Polish fighter squadrons received new aircraft and were preparing for an imminent invasion and became envy for the 309 airmen. source: http://www.polishsquadronsremembered.com/ Edited December 16, 2020 by Slegawsky_VR source 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

VBF-12_Stick-95 1056 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) Here is another historic skin based on a Block 6 MkIIb produced by Hawker Aircraft which was delivered between the 24th July, 1941 and the 18th March 1942. Serial number BE505 was issued to 174 RAF squadron (XP squadron ID, L aircraft ID) which had been at Manston, Kent, which was formed from Hurribombers in March 1942. XP-L BE505 saw action during the Dieppe amphibious landing on 19th August 1942 piloted by Flight Sergeant C. Bryce Watson who was shot down by flak, although he survived the experience he was captured and became a prisoner of war. The restored Hurricane Mk.IIb marked as XP-L BE505 and used as a basis for the skin is part of Peter Teichman's "Hangar 11 Collection" based at North Weald. The actual Hawker Hurricane Mk.IIb was serial number ‘5403’ and was manufactured by Canada Car and Foundry Company Limited in Langley, Canada, and served as a home based fighter with the RCAF 135 squadron from 1942 to 1945. More info here: http://www.militaryplanes.co.uk/be505-h.html Again, thanks to ICDP for the template. Cheers!

The claim painted on his Hurri was quite likely the probable Bf109 of 18 sept 1941. Still, great pics and skin, thanks !! He was nicknamed "Robbie" Robertson.
