## About This Content
A famous name from the 1940s comes to FSX: Steam Edition! The Hawker Hurricane
lost out somewhat in the fame stakes to the much more renowned Spitfire, but
the reality is that Hurricanes proved more effective than Spitfires in the
Battle of Britain. It was a more robust aircraft, and its fabric-over-frame
construction meant that it was cheaper and quicker to build and repair than
the Spitfire with its monocoque all-metal construction. The prototype first
flew on the 6th November, 1935, and the aircraft was steadily improved and
altered to eventual production standard.

Developed by Just Flight, Battle of Britain Hurricane add-on for FSX: Steam
Edition includes three versions of this remarkable aircraft, from the
Prototype through the early Mk1 two-bladed Rotol propeller version to the
Mk1’s more refined three-bladed propeller type. With an incredibly detailed
cockpit, several model variations, exacting flight dynamics, realistic engine
sounds and top quality paint schemes, the Hurricane makes an ideal stablemate
for its famous sister, the Supermarine Spitfire (also available in the FSX:
Steam Edition store).
