From Avweb;
The Hawker Hurricane is one of several iconic fighters of World War II and a relative rarity on the airshow circuit. In this week's video, well-known Canadian warbird expert Dave Hadfield takes us through the initial test flight of a recently restored Mark 12 Hurricane. The aircraft was built in Canada in 1942 and saw duty in the training command. It's part of the Mike Potter collection.
It got an initial restoration after the war, but for the past 16 years has been undergoing extensive restoration back to its original condition.
