Good review, Jim. And I agree totally, a great book, containing a somewhat esoteric 'top 25'! I'd urge anyone interested in preserved warbirds to get hold of a copy.

One thing though, you appear to have got your Hurricanes a little muddled. The aircraft covered in Paul's book (AE977, ex G-TWTD, now N33TF) is now with Tom Friedkin at Chino.

The aircraft reportedly being rebuilt at Hawker Restorations for Flying Heritage is G-KAMM / BW881.

Mike,

This is majorly embarrassing as I am a huge Hurricane fan. You are correct! I have no idea what I was thinking the day I wrote that. Sorry for the error.
