Rob Turns out there's a complete resin kit from LF Models that retails for about 40 Euros and an old Maintrack resin conversion. There's also a chap on The Airfix Tribute Forum who made a start at creating his own using a Hurricane and Tempest kit... http://airfixtributeforum.myfastforum.org/Airfix_Typhoon_and_Hurricane_into_a_Hawker_Tornado_in_1_72_about37894.html 9 minutes ago, wamwig said: I've got many Hawker subjects waiting to get built, from an Audax or two to hawks and a Nimrod, so count me in on this one please!

Doug Rogers Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Cool, got a Hurricane, Typhoon, Tempest, Hunter in the stash. How far down the line are we going with Harriers, is it just the GR1 or GR3 as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Harriers I'm going with any of the metal wing machines; so GR.1 & 3 yes, as well as T.2/4/4N/8, FRS.1 & F/A.2, AV8-A/C/S & TAV8-A/S are all good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Rogers Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Ooh yes, forgot I've got a Heritage twin seat conversion and some transfers for some two seaters. Maybe finally do the Qinetic VAAC bird. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Rogers Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I don't think you'd want it in your living room, would definitely scare the cat out of the catflap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So long as it didn't scare the crap out of the cat before it scared the cat out of the catflap Otherwise I'd be delighted to have the VAAC Harrier, or indeed any other Harrier, in my front room. In fact if I had a big enough house it would make a lovely bit of interior decoration; where some people have one of those faked up 'old' coffee tables or scatter cushions let's have an example of my favourite aircraft as a talking point. Why not? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
