Good grief! That is one worn down Hurricane! Now, this is a Royal Navy aeroplane, and the salty sea will do bad things to paint, but still, if this is the state to which an aeroplane were allowed to deteriorate to, then Olegs worn Spitfire has a long way to go...

If it was one of the Hurricanes bound for the catapult launch, I think they were quite old and tired. Once they took off if they were too far from land it was a one way trip. Paint would not have been a priority

cheers!

Ah, one of the FAA Hurricats, that makes sense. I have read somewhere that one of them was so worn it collapsed on launch. I suppose that Hurri can serve as a "worst possible case still flying" eaxample.

S!

I read somewhere that Fairey Fulmars were also used on catapults on convoys to protect them from prowling Fw200 and U-boats.

Good posts Oleg,
The Walrus looks very good and like the weathering comparison on the Spits.
Will look forward to a flying sequence. Keep the previews coming.
