To commemorate the 75th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain, the Historic Aircraft Collection's Hurricane Mk12A has been repainted as P3700, a Hurricane Mk1, of 303 (Polish) Squadron. The real P3700 was abandoned by Sgt Kazimierz Wunsche on 9 September 1940 during combat with a Luftwaffe Bf109 over Beachy Head.
