hurricane skin

[toadkill]

saw a picture the other day of a black hurricane. heres the picture. its a hurry 2c. wish i could make it, but since im to stupid to know how. i figured i'd put in a bbs request 4 it.

My educated guess is the Hurrciane isn't black... perhaps some shade of blue or even SEAC green but just in bad lighting.  A black Hurri would be the bomb though.

Nope, take my word for it Hurri IIc BE500 was black.
There were some all black Spits also used for nightfighting in the early days, before the advent of dedicated NF Mossies etc.

Good example Spit Vb's from 111sqn in Nov 41.

I used to have a pic, until I find it again look down this page -
