ONE OF OUR WARBIRDS IS MISSING I'M AFRAID CHAPS

[Gnomey]

Is anyone aware of how many airworthy Hurricanes are left after this loss?

The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight still has 2 and there is at least 1 in the US I think. Other than that there are not many - most likely less than 5 or 6.

Saw one four/five years back at the gathering of Warbirds up in Reading, Pa., USA.

...and we continue to fly them. God speed.

We have one at Russells and there is one at vintage wings up in Ottawa , but I think we are now into single digits

Pretty sure there's an airworthy one in NZ.

According to the Daily Mail article linked from the blog link earlier in the thread there were a dozen (presumably airworthy) Hurricanes at the time of the accident. However there was no sourcing for that number in the article so I can't vouch for its accuracy.

According to the latest Aeroplane magazine which ran a Hurricane special , there were 13 (now 12) and 8 undergoing rebuild to flying status
If anybody wants the serials or where they are , I will "borrow" the info from the mag
