Skycat was correct! If you want a good looking Freeware Hawker Hurricane you need to get Robert Sanderson's Hurricane II and Sea Hurricane. Both airplanes are freeware and can be downloaded at flightsim.com. You must be a member to use the search feature at flightsim.com, so maybe one of the sites Skycat mentioned would work better for you. The file names you will need to download are hurrid.zip and the patch file iipatch.zip and seahurri.zip. Both airplanes come with a self installer. See attached pics of the Hurricanes:

These are indeed excellent packages and the Hurricane has long been my favorite English fighter.

The other day I was in a "Half Price Books" in central Indiana and to my surprise there was a copy of the Hurricane II manual.

The Hawker Hurricane is a favorite plane of mine as well. Oh by the way, did you buy the Hurricane II Manual?

Thanks for the link, it's certainly a nice looking bird, I've downloaded it, but haven't had the time to put it through it's paces yet.
This is perhaps my all time favorite bird, as it has so much character.

But I think the story of the Luftwaffe's view sums it up.

During the Battle of France every German pilot shot down swore they had been shot down by a Spitfire, despite there being no Spits in theatre, and which let to the phrase 'Spitfire Snobbery' being coined by the Hurricane pilots
