Corgi Modelzone Hawker Hurricane Mk.IIC LF363 1/72 AA32015

This Corgi Aviation Archive 1:72 scale Hawker Hurricane Mk.IIC was produced exclusively for Modelzone and represents Battle of Britain Memorial Flight aircraft LF363 carrying the code YB-W.

LF363 was the last Hurricane to enter RAF service and later became one of the founding aircraft of the Historic Aircraft Flight, the forerunner of today’s BBMF. In this colour scheme, it commemorates Hurricane Mk.I P3878, flown by Flying Officer Harold “Birdy” Bird-Wilson of No. 17 Squadron during the Battle of Britain.

Presented in the special Modelzone box, this example includes the exceptionally low-numbered certificate 029 of 1,350. The model has never been removed from its box or displayed, making it an especially desirable example for a serious Corgi or BBMF collection.

The pictures shown are library photographs, as we did not want to remove the model and disturb its original packaging.
