| Description |
English: c/n unknown. Built at Kingston and delivered during February 1941. During June it was one of 42 Hurricanes delivered to Malta during ‘Operation Rocket’, flying off HMS Ark Royal for the final stage of the journey. Operated by 46 squadron and based at Safi airstrip, it ditched in the sea off Malta during an early flight on 4th July 1941 with the pilot, Sgt. Thomas Hackston, sadly being killed.
The airframe was located during 1993 and recovered in July 1995. She has since been beautifully restored to ground running condition and is seen here undergoing servicing in the museums main hangar while further restoration work to her port wing is carried out. On display in Malta Aviation Museum, Ta’ Qali, Malta. 27th July 2020 |
