about skins
 

ok bit of a long shot skin making but cant seem to find pics of his aircraft.....

On August 31st 1940 Starr was shot down by enemy fighters during an interception patrol. He baled out and is believed to have been machine-gunned by an enemy aircraft as he fell dead at Hammill Brickworks near Eastry. His Hurricane L1830 came down near Grove Ferry.

his engine i do believe is at manston on display not visited there in awhile as i moved away the pilot that killed him i do believe was dismissed from the Luftwaffe not 100% sure tho (he also flew with tom gleaves)

would anyone be able to find the aircraft and make the skin if not doesnt matter
