Hi John,  thank you for the link. On the side-rear image the rocket rails are visible, overposed to the landing gear. Even if the prop is rotated, it looks likely that it's the same plane. Massimo

Thanks, DGM - I did see what you're talking about, but I wasn't 100% sure that that very small object isn't the foot of a second person running behind the aircraft - you can see one person, more-or-less in line with the prop blade. I thought there might be another one as well. That's my excuse, and I'm sticking to it!  John |

Thanks very much Apex! This is a great site - I also found that if you click on "rata 16"'s avatar, you go to his home (?) page. Scroll down, and you find a *large* list of links to multi-page albums on this site, with images from other members besides "rata 16". There's some great photos among these, too!
John

Thanks DGM for these links,you made a very good selection.The Hurricane photo is very interesting,it looks like a MkIIb painted in black (it clearly has no camouflage).Is it Hurricane Z2899 which was tested by the VVS?If someone has more info and photos of this plane,will be very welcomed.Greetings:
Martin

Jean Hi, could you send me too the documents on the black Hurricane? I remember to have seen a photo in some other book, but I wasn't able to find it again. Massimo |

Hi Jean, thank you very much. I like the effect of the red stars on a black plane. Massimo |
