Five topicalised Hurricane Mark IICs of No. 94 Squadron RAF based at El Gamil, Egypt
Five topicalised Hurricane Mark IICs of No. 94 Squadron RAF based at El Gamil, Egypt, flying in loose starboard echelon formation. The outboard 20mm cannons have been removed from the nearest aircraft (BP389 ?GO-G?) to aid performance. The three rearmost Hurricanes are the " MacRobert Fighters", presentation aircraft paid for by Lady Rachel MacRobert in memory of her three sons, all of whom were killed flying in the early stages of the war. They were handed over to 94 Squadron on 19 September 1942 and are, (front to rear); HL851 " Sir Iaian" (with its Squadron code letters GO-P partly applied), HL735 " Sir Roderic" and HL844 " Sir Alasdair".
The Allied Air Forces growing power is shown by the destruction of more than 200 enemy aircraft over the battle area in the last two months.
