I am looking for someone who lives in Russia with an interest in aviation who can help me track down Hawker Hurricanes in Russia.

Any active members?

Or anyone else for that matter that has been to Russia and found/seen a Hawker Hurricane.

I actually meant no he isnt Russian. He's part of a Russian re-enactment group and I think he's actually from Bristol in the UK.

Hawker Hurricanes? Well, as far as I know they dragged one out of a lake on the Kola Peninsular in amazing condition. I understand they're going to restore it to flying status, and I imagine it will appear at airshows over there.

There is also the Russian Federation Air Force Museum in Monino which is outside Moscow, which apparantly has two Lend-Lease Hurricanes exibited there.

I have those 2 on my list, i also have several others now.

I was hoping i could get in contact with someone out there that could confirm their condition and possibly provide photos. No, i am not doing a survivors list, i am doing something different. Just as part of it i am trying to locate as many survivors as i can.
At the moment i am only looking at ones that fly or are under restoration to fly but i will soon be moving into the museam examples.
