Vital Storm part 2: Early RAF Hurricanes collection featuring Hurricane Mk.Is from the Battle of Britain and beyond. Two historic aircraft, with three variations on one of them (details below).

• Small series screen-printed production.

• Available in 1/72, 1/48, and 1/24 scale versions (this listing is for the 1/24 scale edition). The smaller scale sets feature six aircraft subjects.

• Decals to model any one of two different aircraft with multiple variations of one of them, featuring enough common markings and comprehensive airframe stencil data markings for one complete model. • This set may represent the first time the Nicolson VC action aircraft , and the three variations of Gleed's P2798 , have been made available in model decal form.

• In the modified version of this set (catalogue number has an “m” suffix appended), a replica of Nicolson’s personal marking – a little red devil emblem – have been included (see Hurricane I P3576 below). The emblem is based on a description provided by Nicolson himself to family members and seen, also in replica form based on that description, in the Nicolson exhibit in the Battle of Britain Hall at the Tangmere Museum

• 2 full sets of airframe stencil data decals are provided; one each for nightfighter and non-nightfighter schemes.

• 8 Four 8.5 x 11in. pages of illustrated documentation.*

*High resolution b&w supplied in the package. Home-printable colour PDF version available via email after purchase.

• Documentation includes decal placement and painting instructions for all subject aircraft variations. Additional material in this particular set's Docs include a clear full-page presentation of the finish variations worn on early Hurricanes, and a similar presentation of airframe stencil data / maintenance markings variations. Profiles of both sides of each subject are accompanied by historical and detail notes .

• Richly detailed Docs file – the Aviaeology "magazine article in a decal bag" you may have heard about – as a PDF that you can zoom in to high magnification on-screen, or print out. Internet-connected registered owners of the decal set get the colour docs PDF for free.

• A se parate general decal preparation / application instruction sheet completes the package.

Aircraft covered in this set:

• Hurricane I P2798 as LK•A of 87 Squadron (F/L Gleed, later S/L Gleed). 3 variations, including a nightfighter, of this aircraft’s paint and markings are explored .

• Hurricane I P3576 as GN•A of 249 Squadron (F/L Nicolson VC) . Although no photographs of this aircraft have been discovered to date, we thought it an important enough subject to attempt nonetheless. Our reconstruction is therefore based on photos of other Hurricanes on the squadron around the same time (i.e. code lettering and national markings similarities), and other Hurricanes close in serial number (i.e. production batch similarities to P2798), and 2 possible paint and markings variation possibilities are thus provided for. Two possible sizes of the Nicolson personal emblem – have been included for the modeler to use at their own discretion as, after some discussion with researchers, no definitive conclusions could be drawn.
