Seagull Models have recreated famous aircraft and perfectly matched the unique humpback profile of the Hurricane while beautifully recreating the metal skin wing and wood/fabric rear fuselage detail with its Hawker Hurricane 33cc with a wingspan of 2083mm. This model is not to be taken for granted as not only is it built from CNC-cut balsa and ply wrapped in matte Oracover, but also embellished with a scale detail, landing lights, sprung tail wheel, and inset trailing edge flaps. Seagull Models have clearly done justice to the legendary fighter aircraft.
