It was given the identity of aircraft CCF c/n 72036 as that aircraft was the source of the airframe used in the rebuild. RCAF 5711 had been built in 1942 by the Canadian Car Foundry as part of their sixth production batch and joined the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1943. It is believed to have served with 123 Squadron at Debert before going to 127 and 129 Squadrons at Dartmouth and onto 1 Operational Training Unit at Bagotville. It made its first post-restoration flight in 1989 painted in RAF markings as Z3781 coded XR-T of 71 Eagle Squadron. Historic Aircraft Collection acquired the Hurricane in 2002 and it reappeared in an entirely new paint scheme for 2004, Z5140 coded HA-C of No 126 Squadron, the paint scheme that was worn by a Gloster-built Hurricane IIB, flown with 126 Squadron during the siege of Malta. In September 2005 Hurricane Z5140 became the first Hurricane to return to the Mediterranean island of Malta since the Second World War. It flew there together with Spitfire BM597 as part of the Merlins Over Malta project. In August 2012 she flew to Moscow to display in their centenary airshow. For the 75th anniversary in 2015 of the Battle of Britain and with the support of the Polish Embassy G-HURI was repainted in RAF markings as P3700 a Hurricane Mk1, coded RF-E of No 303 (Polish) Squadron. P3700 was abandoned by Sgt Kazimierz Wunsche over Poynings, West Sussex, on 9th September 1940 after sustaining damage from a Bf 109 during combat over Beachy Head. In May/June 2023 the Hurricane was given the markings of two pilots from No 302 Squadron during the time the unit was stationed at Duxford. The starboard side has been finished as P2954/WX-E, the Hurricane I flown by Flt Lt Tadeusz Chlopik, while the port side represents P3935/WX-D, the mount of Flt Lt — later Wg Cdr — Julian Kowalski. No 302 Squadron was stationed at Duxford briefly during the Battle of Britain. Over this time both pilots were scrambled after German bombers over North Weald on 15 September 1940. Chlopik claimed the shared kill of a Dornier Do17 before P2954 was shot down above the Essex airfield. He bailed out, but was killed. He is buried in Southend-on-Sea’s Sutton Road cemetery. Kowalski downed another Do 17 during the same engagement and damaged another. Later becoming 302 Squadron’s CO and, from April 1944, commander of No 1 (Polish) Wing at Northolt, he left the RAF in 1947. Staying in the UK while Poland came under communist control, he took up a career designing agricultural equipment for Ransomes, Sims & Jefferies in Ipswich, where he lived until his death in 1986.
