Hi,
Promised few days ago and just finished - second one radial Audax, this time with 9-cylinder Bristol, next of my "Hawker Hart Family mass production" - the Hawker Persian Audax.
Model was scratch converted and detailed from AZ Hart B4 kit. Markings are following the Profile Publication scheme with small differences based on speculations or photos
In Interwar section I tried to discuss confusion I have with details
http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234986512-persian-audax-1941-confusion/
- many thanks for most of all John Aero for his comments, which encourages me with finish.
This machine is in markings of 4th regiment based in Abadan. However - the numberals on cowlings and upper wing are Perisan "2" - why not "4"?. The individual number is 253 (read from right to left).
She is suppoused to take part in few days war against British-Soviet invasion of Iran in 1941. Since it was short war and before it machine was exploited in peacefull time and was repainted shortly before the war - I made very delicate weathering despite desert condisions there.
Here she is:
Comments welcome and thanks for watching
Regards
Jerzy-Wojtek
