EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, the final production Hawker Hurricane IIC, PZ865, rolls out of the Hawker factory at Langley in 1944. The Hawker Hurricane, a legendary fighter aircraft of the Second World War, reached its zenith with the IIC model. This aircraft, with its distinctive curved wings and powerful Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, was a formidable force in the skies, contributing significantly to the Allied victory. The Roll-out of PZ865 marked the end of an era for the Hawker Hurricane, which had first entered service in 1937. Over the years, the Hurricane had undergone numerous improvements and upgrades, leading to the IIC model. With its advanced features, the IIC was a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the British aircraft industry during the war. The Hawker factory at Langley, located in Berkshire, England, was the birthplace of many iconic aircraft, including the Hurricane. The factory's workers, engineers, and designers worked tirelessly to produce these aircraft, ensuring they were of the highest quality and met the demands of the military. The Roll-out of PZ865, the last of the many Hurricanes produced at Langley, signified the end of an era. However, it also represented the culmination of years of innovation, dedication, and hard work. The Hawker Hurricane IIC, PZ865, would go on to serve in various roles, including as a trainer and target tug, long after the war had ended. This photograph captures a moment in history, a moment that symbolizes the end of an iconic aircraft's production, but also the beginning of its legacy.
