The British Civil Air Attache's Proctor 5, wearing UK civil registration G-AHGN with an RAF fin flash, flying over the Capitol buildings in Washington.
Aeroplane 23 November 1945 *P.603 - stated that the British Civil Air Attache in Washington, Peter Masefield, had been provided with a Hawker Hurricane for his visits all over USA and Canada. (Any Identity known? Was it civil?)
23.11.45 p.603: The report of a Hurricane for the use of Civil Air Attache Peter Masefield in Washington appears to be erroneous. A Hurricane would hardly have been very practical for long distance visits and in fact the aircraft provided was a new Proctor 5 G-AHGN (see photo). In due course it became N558E and was sold to Packard Motors of Florida after extensive use.
