Hurried Hurricane part 1 - a journey with no destination?

The box of kits which yielded up the La-7 also contained - wedged almost invisibly between some other boxes - this Revell Hurricane. Originally part of a Battle of Britain set I dug out the Hurricane with no clear idea of how it would end up. Well that’s not strictly true - while building the Romanian Bf-109E I had discovered a set of Romanian decals. And the Romanians were, of course, recipients of some early Hurricanes...

As you can see it was a pretty simple kit. That’s the Lavochkin in the background.
