Photo Archive N° 16 - Hawker Typhoon 1940 to Spring 1943

Chris Thomas, the son of a Typhoon pilot,  is probably the world’s leading expert on the Hawker Typhoon and has an incredible reference library on this classic fighter.  Originally we thought about having one volume on the Typhoon and one on the Tempest, but with Chris’s archive and knowledge, we think that we may stretch to four or even five books on the two aircraft.
This first one covers the early days of Typhoon development and operations and includes the usual mix of high-res wartime photos, informative captions and plenty of ‘I never knew that’ moments, especially in the area of recognition markings which these early Typhoons saw their fair share of.
