Hawker aircraft 1940 to 1980

 

I realised that over the years I have built most of the Hawker line other than the prototypes (for which see John R's posts) - except for the P.1127 - so I thought I would put them all together:

The upgrading of those old Airfix kits is totally stunning.
Say, that first Airfix Hurricane, which kit was that originally..?

It was I think was the second Hurricane that Airfix produced - not the original Mk.IV RP, but the one after that. I totally rescribed it, reshaped it, added an interior, etc. One day I will replace that fragile aerial mast and put it on straight this time.
