Power Prop Gliders - #1 Hawker Hurricane

This is an update to a post I made back on September 21, 2013.  In that post I only posted a picture of the packaging of this glider because for some reason a Spitfire came inside the Hurricane package.

A while back I found a full set of 12 Power Prop Gliders in the red & blue packs for sale on E-bay.  They included a #1 Hawker Hurricane which I did not yet have.  Thankfully now I have an entire set of 12!  The coloring on this one is a little washed out as you can see.

Glider with "Power Prop" - #6 Hawker Hurricane MK. 11C

The Hurricane was probably the first glider that I ever got.  I think that my brother & I each received a glider and later on I inherited his glider.  As you can see they logged some pretty serious flight time and some pretty serious time in the "shop" as well as you can see the extensive repairs done with scotch tape which has yellowed over the years.  The purple colored ones are definitely older than the more pristine looking glider.

The envelope says Hawker Hurricane, but a very nice Curtiss P-40 Tomahawk glider came inside.  I'll have to keep a lookout for another one of these.
