Famous WW2 Quote
"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."Winston Churchill

Sea Hurricane Mk IC in formation, but I don't see any arrester hooks, as the hooks
should be forward of the tail wheel, but
than again maybe they haven't been installed
but than again, I've been wrong before.
In 1941, 400 Hurricanes were converted with
catapult spools and arrester hooks, for the
Fleet Air Arm.
