<i>Aircraft of the Royal Air Force 1939-1945- Hawker Hurricane.</i><br>
Five tropicalised Hurricane Mark IICs of No. 94 Squadron RAF based at El Gamil, Egypt, flying in loose starboard echelon formation.  The outboard 20mm cannons have been removed from the nearest aircraft (BP389 &amp;#145;GO-G&amp;#146;) to aid performance.  The three rearmost Hurricanes are the "MacRobert Fighters", presentation aircraft paid for by Lady Rachel MacRobert in memory of her three sons, all of whom were killed flying in the early stages of the war.  They were handed over to 94 Squadron on 19 September 1942 and are, (front to rear); HL851 "Sir Iaian" (with its Squadron code letters 'GO-P' partly applied), HL735 "Sir Roderic" and HL844 "Sir Alasdair".
