Hurricanes to the Fore - The First Aces $17.95  Aircraft of the Aces: Men & Legends - Book 7 Published in 1999 by Del Prado / Osprey, UK Softcover, 64 Pages Size - 25cm * 19cm The Hawker Hurricane was the RAF's first monoplane fighter, and it dragged the air force into a position where it could defend Britain in its "hour of need" Prior to the Battle of Britain, a number of squadrons equipped with the fighter had seen action firstly in the "Phoney War° and then during the disastrous campaign in France. Pilots like the New Zealander "Cobber" Kain had achieved impressive scores in the face of overwhelming Luftwaffe forces, and although the RAF lost no less than 386 Hurricanes during the Bliztkrieg, it gave many pilots valuable experience. Hawker fighters outnumbered Spitfires during the Battle of Britain by three to one, and downed for more aircraft. Overseas, a handful of pilots put up stiff resistance against Germany's Italian ally in Libya and Egypt, and also over Malta. Fully Illustrated with B&W photos, 2 pages of line drawings, and 12 pages of colour drawings
