@playtime 222: During the war in the Dutch East Indies, the ML-KNIL (Royal Netherlands East Indies Army Air Force) received 12 Hurricanes from the RAF. You can check the full story here, text in Dutch:

Wow. What a mess, no tools (metric v imperial - that was still a problem in the UK in the 70s - every engineer had 2 sets of tools), no fuel, no lube, no radio and half the guns by choice!

Thanks Soeren 👍
Yes it were chaotic times Playtime, the conversion to the Hurricane was lead by the only Dutch pilot with experience on a British type, actually the Spitfire 🙂
