He's not talking about that design is he? Stick to the subject will
you?
There is a reference to a twin Hurricane built from two crashed
aircraft parts with a new wing section and new engines. It was
designated a non-official N2368 and only one was built, used mostly
for testing but initially to meet an RAF specification. Eventually, it
was scrapped.
The information comes from the Feb 1999 issue of IPMS in a 4 page
article by Paul Lloyd. It was for a twin-hurricane model and there is
one historic poor-quality photo of N2368 included.
I have never seen the photo since the magazine was from the UK but
that is where the information comes from. Maybe you can still buy it?
Sounds like Jim's friend is a modeler and gets his WW2 info from those
sources.

Rob, that was an April Fool article in IPMS.
