Ray Holmes Hurricane 15th September 1940

[Showtime100]

Sorry this thread is not about the latest & greatest adventures of the RAF however I would appreciate any help.

Upon reading the obituary last week of the late Ray Holmes RIP I have on a whim decided to build a model of his Hurricane from that fateful day in September 1940.

For those who do not know who he was, Ray was the BoB pilot who brought down a German Bomber that was trying to bomb Buckingham Palace by ramming the bomber having run out of bullets attacking other Do17s.

Anyway I know he was flying for 504 Squadron that day but I wondered if anyone here knew of any links or books etc that may denote his aircraft from that day.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
