HAWKER TYPHOONS WARTIME SALCOMBE SOUTH DEVON

The Hawker Typhoon spent some time flying from RAF Bolt Head a small Advanced Landing Ground near Salcombe in Devon during June and July 1944. The Hawker Typhoon was one of the most powerful single seat fighter aircraft the RAF were flying during World War Two. The Typhoon had a 2,200 hp Napier Sabre engine which was 24 cylinders horizontally opposed configeration. The airframe suffered structural problems where the tail section broke off, the pilots needed oxygen while flying to combat the seepage of exhaust fumes in the cockpit and the Sabre engine was unreliable. Despite all these problems the Typhoon went on to be one of the most formidable aircraft of World War Two. Brave pilots took off from Bolt Head to fly 100 miles across the open channel to attack targets in Northern France. Many Thanks to Philip D West for the Typhoon Painting.
