Excellent condition.
This would appear to be a model of the early two blade propeller version of the Hawker Hurricane in production from 1936 until January 1939 when introduction of the Merlin III engine required a three blade propeller. Though perhaps overshadowed by the more illustrious Spitfire the Hurricane was the first RAF plane to fly at over 300mph, it formed the backbone of the RAF during the battle of Britain and in fact accounted for four fifths of enemy aircraft destroyed in the crucial period July-October 1940.
