Manual Hawker Hurricane MkI Aircraft Flight BoB
This is the Flight Manual or Pilot's Operating Instructions for the Hawker Hurricane Mk I (with the Rolls Royce Merlin Mk II engine) from 1939. The original was in the Shuttleworth Collection and we bought it at auction in 2004. We later sold it to Peter Vacher who flew out here to pick it up. Peter has recently completed the restoration of his Mk I Hurricane which was an airframe actually flown in the Battle of Britain. 

This is a very fine e-book recording of the 1939 edition which was the most common in service during the Battle of Britain. Every Hurricane Pilot would have had one including Sir Keith Park and Douglas Bader.

This e-book is as per the original manual - a beautiful little gem. There are 186 pages with illustrations per the original including fold-out pages actually presented as fold-out pages (most e-book producers chop the fold-out pages down so that they appear on a single page. This is a bad practice). The first thing you'll notice when you view our CD is that no matter how closely you zoom in on each page, the resolution does not break down. This is only possible when you produce in high resolution as we do.

You may have noticed this manual on offer elsewhere - from a Canadian, additionally an Australian and lately a Dutchman and even an Englishman - sounds a bit like the start of a joke. Unfortuanately, these pirates have had a go at this manual and in an effort to cover their tracks they have chopped down the pages, added illustrations and other things that were never in the original manual. Ours is exactly faithful to the original and the history of the manual is exactly as described above. We trust that buyers will support our efforts by buying from us and staying away from shonky self serving traders with bad grammar, tall stories, a bad attitude to history.

This e-book publication is print enabled. Purchasers of our product are entitled to print for personal use. Further uses can be granted as long as permission is sought from us in advance and the appropriate publishing credits acknowledged in each publication. We are here to help and we are very much committed good practice in publishing and the preservation of history.

We are able to process Mastercard and Visa directly. Alternatively, you can use Paypal.
