Col. Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 A quick reminder to post five photos of your finshed models in the gallery once done gang. We've a great selection of Hawker and Hawker Siddeley products in there already but there's a few more due in and still time for the quick builders amongst us to get a thread going with some late entries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Sorry gang but life has been a little, how shall we say, busy? That coupled with not being able to log in due to my own stupidity resulted in you lot being left unattended but it doesn't look as if you've burnt the place down so we're doing okay 😉 Now if you'll excuse me I really need to catch up with all the good work that's been going on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col. Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 That's us now into our final week of this GB gang. There's already a great selection of finished models in the gallery and a couple more getting close to hopefully joining before the deadline so I think we've done a fine job of representing a good selection of Hawker and Hawker Siddeley products.

Hope to finish them soon, you will see it here first 😉 Was a pleasure to help Werner and you've made great progress on the Hunters, particularly so with that kit requiring so much work to get the best from, I'm looking forward to watching your continued progress. I'll get the poll set up over the next few days as there's a big gallery to work through 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight_Flyer Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Thanks for the GB and hosting. Was hoping for a break after finishing the the Tiffie, alas... straight onto resuming another GB model... didn't get the timing right on that one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col. Posted June 7, 2018 Author Share Posted June 7, 2018 While thinking on how to set out the poll I had a count up on various aspects of the subjects within the finished gallery so, here for your idle perusal, are some facts and figures: Of the 51 models there were 24 jets and 27 prop driven subjects. Almost all were monoplanes apart from John D.C. Masters' Hart biplane. The 72nd scale or smaller kits totalled 37 while there were 14 in 48th scale or above. Of there CliffB's 200th scale HS.125 was the smallest and Erwin's 24th scale Hurricane the largest. Quite a range I'm sure you'll agree. The Harrier proved to be the most popular single subject with 15 examples finished while the Hurricane was second favourite with 11, third place went to the Tempest at 7 with the Typhoon close behind on 6, the Hunter had 4, there was 2 each of the Hawk and Sea Fury, then single examples of the HS.125, Hart, Buccaneer, and Sea Hawk. Quite a fitting tribute to the Hawker company and a whole load of fun I hope you'll all agree. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOCKNEY Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Finally finished the Novo Hunter, great GB, sorry I missed the gallery, but the range and standard of builds in there is exceptional. Well done everyone especially our hosts for a brilliant GB. cheers Pat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
