Please share your ideas of what to build in this group. Some ideas are listed below:

Hawker: Duiker, Woodcock, Cygnet, Hedgehog, Horseley, Heron, Hornbill, Danecock, Harrier, Hawfinch, Hart, Hoopoe, Tomtit, Hornet, Osprey, Nimrod, Fury, Audax, Dantorp, Demon, Hart, Hind, Hartbeest, Hurricane, Hector, Henley, Hotspur, Tornado, Typhoon, Tempest, Sea Fury, Sea Hawk, Hunter, and many more.

Hawker Siddeley: Trident, HS.748/Andover, Kestrel, Harrier, Nimrod, Argosy, Buccaneer, Hunter, Hawk to name some.

Some of the above were manufactured under other names, but can relate to the Hawker brand in some way. The company can also be associated to missiles, railway equipment and many other things. Make your case for your build, relating it to the Hawker name in some way.

Or even a Dutch Hurricane. A not so often seen scheme also.

Thanks a lot for your invitation Erik @airbum. Brilliant idea to honor the Hawker company.

Looking at my stash I find a few relevant topics. A Hurricane, Tempest, Typhoon, Harrier and a Buccaneer. So now I have to decide where to start…

Thanks for the invitation, my friend @airbum! I am thinking of the 1/48 Airfix Buccaneer...yes, the older criticized mold...

Most welcome @gblair. The group was started as an invite-only group, but it should be visible under groups.

I had forgotten to push a button - now it should work. I plan on making it public soon, but wanted to test a few things first. Looking forward to some of your listed builds 🙂

I have a Hasegawa 1/48 Hurricane IID that I want to do, as well as a 1/48 Airfix Hunter that I just got today at my local hobby shop. Too many kits to build.

Unfortunately no Hawker aircraft in my stash (which is not that big 🙂 ) but aiming for a Hurricane as well, Erik @airbum
@gblair, great choices, too many kits or too little time 😉

Hey Erik ! Thanks for the invite.

I definitely have a Hawker or two to build for this group. I have several Hurricanes, and a few Typhoon and Tempests as well. I will see what others decide to do, and then make up my mind. Mine are all 1/48 scale, and from either WW2 or the Korean War eras. These are older Eduard kits, or Hasegawa molds, but I even have an old Hobbycraft Hurricane as well. It's the Night Fighter boxing and I think it has 20 MM cannons in the wings going from memory.

I have been wanting to build a Korean War Sea Fury, so that might be what I will start with, depending on what others chose first. This too is an old Hobbycraft kit.

This should be fun, I'm looking forward to it.

Thanks again. I'm honored to be among my good friends.

Take care.
