G'day, In looking through my favorite magazine Fly Past, I came across a great article on the Hawker Sea Hurricane. Sea Hurricanes flew with 801 squad and was with RNAS Yeovilton in 1941 and flew defence cover to the Home fleet base at scarpa Flow. In 1942 the squad was deployed to the mediterraneanwith HNS Eagle and Argus.They had more than 70 fighters embarked and had to take on the whole of the Axis airforce for three days while doing the Malta convoys escort. So, my question is, As we can see the Sea Hurricane has a long, battle tried history, is it hard to stick an arester on one ? I can provide a link which gives great specs and action details.

as well as it has links. I would like to do this myself but I am not smart enough to. It seems to me that they were normal hurricanes but fitted with hooks and catcpult spools as well as new skins.
Hope this is where I can get help .
