This is an intriguing photo of a belly-landed Hurricane Mk I, GZ-M of 32 Sqn somewhere in France, 1940. The wooden Rotol prop blades have shattered of course and the spinner is the typical 'oversized' blunt Rotol spinner. The interesting thing is the back of the spinner which seems to have had a flared plate fitted to make it even more 'oversize' where it meets the fuselage. We've never seen this flared plate before on other Rotol spinners, anyone know any more?
