Royal Air Force 501 squadron Hawker Hurricanes led by Sgt Ginger Lacey in aviation art print by Keith Woodcock, Dawn Scramble. The Hawker Hurricane, one of the two great British fighter aircraft of the Battle of Britain. Aviation art prints available from Cranston Fine Arts.

Pilot of 501 Squadron. Squadron Leader John Gibson In May 1940 John Gibson joined 501 Squadron. The squadron flew to France and saw action during the German advances. On 27th May Gibson destroyed an He III and shared in the destruction of another before he was himself shot down, crash-landing in a field. The much-depleted Squadrons final base was at St Helier in Jersey on 19 June 1940, from where it covered the evacuation of the British Army from Cherbourg. During the Battle of Britain, Gibson destroyed seven aircraft. In an action on August 15 1940 Gibsons aircraft was set alight by return fire from a Stuka, one of a force attacking Hawkinge airfield. Being then directly over Folkestone, Gibson steered his blazing aircraft away from the town and took it down to 1000 feet before baling out. He was again shot down in flames on the 29th, this time over Dover, and baled out into the sea two miles off the coast. He was picked up by a motor boat. About this time Gibson was awarded the DFC. Later in the war he served in the Pacific and was awarded the DSO. He passed away on the 1st July 2000.

Battle Above Dover by Adrian Rigby on 29th July 1904, the Luftwaffe launched what they believed was a surprise attack on the port of Dover and the shipping in the area. RAF controllers however were quick to react and Spitfire from Manston along with twelve Hurricanes from Hawkinge intercepted nearly fifty Stukas and no less than eighty fighter escorts. the battle was intense and made even more dangerous for the RAF by the heavy flak, which the gunners of Dover used to some success, shooting two Stukas out of the sky. at the end of the action, seven German aircraft were lost to just one Spitfire. more significantly, Dover was spared serious damage and no ships were lost. Signed by Wing Commander K W MacKenzie DFC AFC, Pilot Officer with 43 and 501 Sqns.

Hurricane Country by Nicolas Trudgian.
Released on the 65th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain a new limited edition to commemorate Churchills famous few. Stalwart of the Battle of Britain, the Hawker Hurricane equipped the majority of the RAF squadrons that defended Britain during that epic and decisive air battle in the summer of 1940. At the forefront of the air fighting over the southern counties of England, the young Hurricane pilots of 501 Squadron covered themselves in glory. Nicolas Trudgians painting sets the scene: a victim of yesterdays aerial conflicts, a crashlanded German Ju88 of KG30 lies on the edge of a Sussex field; the attention of two members of the local Home Guard is drawn to the Hurricanes of 501 Squadron as the fighters race back at low-level to Gravesend for fuel and ammunition. Within minutes they will scramble aloft again to rejoin the fray.
