Is it a scale model or is it full size?

Hawker Hurricane Mark I or a scale model of one.

I suspect it's a model, but damn it's a nice one. It's the grass that looks fake, not the plane itself…
 
It's the real deal. If it were a model, unless to 1/4-scale, or so, the lettering on the underside wouldn't be that legible. ..... Me thinks.
 
Since you’re asking I have to conclude that it’s a model, otherwise you wouldn’t be asking. But you know that we know this, so following this logic of thought the inverse must be true. It’s real.

If I’m wrong sue me! LOL
 
I would say... It's the real deal... with added space to the right. ;)
Yes real. Well spotted, I’d not noticed that cloning repetition on the right that I think was to get rid of the rudder of the next aircraft in a row. I’ve not got easy access to the original at the moment.

No it is real but although I took the picture, I was struck with how oddly model like that it seemed.

It was the angle of shot that made me think it was real. You'd have to be real low to get the shot of something smaller and under its' wing. But when I seen the cloned area I thought, hmm, you wouldn't go to the trouble of shifting the plane to the left if it was a model. That sealed the deal for me, but... it could have steered me wrong. lol
Great image, great plane. Thanks for posting it.
