  3. very nice mate well done, you can never have too many hawks
  4. im after the retirment scheme, which unfortunatley hasnt been made YET? may have to do it myself
  5. cool, i have an r1 to crack on with but i cant find the decals i need, ho hum
  6. i ment angle wise, but on checking a few photos, im not sure
  7. i did have 150, but i sold some to the local ATC, lol
  8. im really surprised in this move by airfix, the last tool was far ahead of any other hawks on the market, but im slightly worried about a couple of things pros - pannel lines and wing fences (although they dont look in the right place on quick inspection) cons - now you cant open the cockpit unless you cut the clear part, and 1 pilot? what does this mean for the other boxing of the hawk kit (the black hawk) now with over 50 of the old ones in my stash, i may get one to see what the comparison is, cos if its not broke.......
  9. i think jennings gets what i mean there is very little relation between the t1 / t2 and a t-45 the airfix and italeri kits are very good for there price, as for detail there aint much on a hawk anyway - poor fit? i have built 20 of the 1/48 ones (both airfix and italeri) and well the fitt is pretty good, slightly better on the italeri as is the detail but the price is more expensive going back to the t-45, Gabe Pincelli (recently retired t-45 instructor pilot) has had a hand in this kit being designed, so im ecpecting great things the t-45 is the one missing form my collection i have all but them in 1/48 t1, t2, 200, korean nose job, then lot
  10. anyone sees this on ANY site for sale please please PM me! im after a few goshawks but whats wrong with the italeri and airfix hawks?
  11. the BSG kits are re-pops of the mobius ones big UHU out soon as well
  12. cool again but the front Fod covers would have straps on as well at scampton the reds are wheeled in after sorties so very rarely where covers as they scrath the paint too
  13. i belive its a protective strip with changes color over time much in the same way as selotape weathers and turns brown
  14. very very nice thats one i havent built yet well done
  15. as i said i have no opinoin myself but i would trust my source 120% and if i rember right the 607 book said the extras were added later except for the nav system with was internal only form mission 1
  16. guys i have just spoken to a very good source (part of the bb1 crew) mission 1 was empty 21 iron bombs only, and he is very very insisntant they photo acording to the crew member was not mission 1, as they was a photos / press blackout and well i have no personal ida but id got with the source
  17. as i under satnd it no2 is just off the production line so we have 2 one for each carrier!!
  18. as somone who see's 607 regularly at RAF Waddington im really looking forward to this i may have to get one or 5
  19. these are form the s2 at NAM but should be the same
  20. if weve got to wait for the carries lets, build some goshawks to practice with and build some navalised typhoons and have done with it
