Frank Roses' Hurricane, L1980, was the first to be fitted with a de Havilland variable pitch propeller. It was subsequently repaired and served with 46 Squadron as part of the Norwegian Campaign. It was finally lost when HMS Glorious was sunk on 8 June 1940 by the battlecruiser Scharnhorst during the evacuation which followed.

Hulton Harrop's grave in St Andrew's Churchyard, North Weald.
