A Whirlwind in Hawkinge

Available for over a year

The recreated cockpit of a Westland Whirlwind has arrived at the Battle of Britain Museum in Hawkinge. It was a contemporary of the Spitfire and Hurricane but was never fully commissioned by the RAF. Our reporter Jo Burn has been to see the first section. You can see the Westland Whirlwind under construction at the Battle of Britain Musuem at Hawkinge. The museum is open from Tuesday to Sunday from 10am until 5pm. There are more details about the rebuild at whirlwindfp.org
