JWC Simpson. He is in the middle in the photo in my sig. Interestingly he used a question mark as part of the code of his Hurricane - ? DX, see below. It would make a good skin ..... Larry 69?
He fought in the Battle of Britain and is the subject of the book 'Combat Report' by Hector Bolitho, about his experiences in the battle, which was published during the war. He survived the war, staying in the RAF. Sadly he committed suicide in Hyde Park in 1949.

I've not seen the second photo before (I'll have to get around to updating my skin).

Here it is, with screenshots and download link from the skins thread:

I think it is not the same Aircraft! red too`s B/W Pictures shows DX-? (P3101, late 1940).
Setback`s Hurricane is one uf the "W-series" (1941). Both wears the Joker. But are not the same Hurricane.

great Images red too! go one! Thanks
