Must be time for some pics

I’m really into the whole Hawk series. I don’t know why but here are so pics which speak louder than words.

Yep – Flypast and other aviation mags don’t necessarily know anything more than the rest of us about the situation of aircraft, so if they don’t know where it is and what condition it’s in, it’s not surprising they’ve got no news!

One small point, the aircraft is a Hawk 75, not a P-36. This was an exported version, not the US type. There are detail differences – not least that the throttle should work in the opposite direction (push forward to close, pull to open).

It IS in Flypast – in the UK registrations news. It has been added to the civil register G-CCVH.

I’m sure we’ll see it soon enough…

I am glad you like it. 🙂 I also can’t wait to hear more about the current condition of TFC P36. Is there someone who knows the latest news?
