Description: A Hawker Hurricane Mark I of No. 213 Squadron RAF based at Famagusta, Cyprus, banks away from the photographer's aircraft over the mountains of Cyprus. Note the undersurface paint scheme used - with considerable variation - to identify operational RAF fighters in the early years of the Second World War. In this case the aircraft's azure-blue undersurface has been augmented by painting the port wing matt black.
