Default One Way Hurricanes For Convoy Protection

Got a question!

Did Great Britain actually catapult Hurricane fighters from cargo ships to
protect convoys from German Folkwulf bombers? If so, did the Hurricane pilot
then ditch or bail out after the fight? And what percentage of Hurricane
pilots ever made it back, especially on the Murmansk run?

Thanks,

WDA
