Smashing paint job. Much nicer than the horrid black scheme, which must add another 10 degrees to the airframe temperature cycling in summer.

Hawk is my favourite aircraft. I liked the old red and white training colours best.

Yes …black aircraft are a cow to work on,temperature being one thing and also when trying to visually check the airframe esp underside in a fairly dingy hangar,any light scource just disappears into the blackness.
