Hurricane Z7015 was built in Canada in 1940 and converted to a Sea Hurricane 1b in 1941 for Royal Navy convoy protection. After a brief wartime career, it became a training airframe before joining the Shuttleworth Collection in 1961. Fully restored, it flew again in 1995 as the world’s only airworthy Sea Hurricane 1b, painted in No. 880 Squadron colours from HMS Indomitable.
