I amused myself a couple of winters ago by creating a replica hurricane on paper. I set myself the target of 100% scale, modern technology and reliability, flyable on Hurricane pilots notes with only numbers changed.

If at some point I have 2 spare years and about £150k + money to live on, I might just do the detail design and build as well!

Until then, the Mk.26 is what's out there, and power to the collective elbows of the designers, builders and pilots.
