Hawker Hurricane Mk.IIB BE485
Here we see Hurricane Mk.IIB BE485, with a bomb carried under each wing. This aircraft was lost on its first sortee with No.175 Squadron, Ramrod No.2 of 16 April 1942. The aircraft suffered a glycol leak, and its pilot Fl/ Sgt Bricker W. Forman was forced to ditch in the channel. Sadly he died of his wounds before he could be rescued.
