HS.125 Series 1B Question


Recommended Posts

Anyone know if the HS.125 Series 1B (UK domestic) aircraft had bulged doors over the main gear wheels?  Yes, I'm planning a major revamp of the recently re-released Airfix Dominie kit, which has the wheels exposed--which was true only (I think) of the Dominie.  Thanks in advance!

Series 1B was not so much the UK domestic model as the global model for everywhere except the USA. 

I think they were all built with inner gear doors, though I would not be astonished if someone told me that those doors were sometimes removed in service.

Thanks!  I was definitely planning to convert the main gear doors from the old Airfix Jet Provost, which are perfectly sized.  I was unsure, however, whether these inner doors had a pronounced bulge.  Probably not, from the photos I've seen, but thought there might be someone out there who has worked on these jets.
