Whilst trying to recover a 1:72 Hawker Sea Hawk that had fallen down behind the TV, I slipped and banged my head on the window sill. This might not be quite what you are looking for, but the bang on the head answers a lot of questions! :diablo:

Inherently risky business this :diablo:

When did that happen Garry?

The recovery and subsequent scrapping/disposal of substantial parts of Douglas Boston Z2186 by the “Boston-Havoc Preservation Trust” here in the UK. This included selling one outer wing section for £250 to a local scrap yard,according to their article in the BAAC magazine.:mad:

Hi Deryck

I think your best bet would be to repair them – sympathetic rewelding and patching where necessary. I think there are quite a few Halibag drawings around, but if these are pressings they will be very pricey and difficult to make.

I think you did a good job Ben. Ignore everyone and keep up the good work :diablo:

That’s a fair price for a Dunlop grip :p

Dave

Do you know what mods they had done to them? I have some late moded BFPs.

Cheers

You are correct in stating that DH modified the standard blind flying panels for some of their aircraft.

I have DH drawings for later marks of the Hornet that show mods. to the standard panel, for example.

Did anyone work out the history for that fin? I remember seeing a werke number on it… That was the star of the auction in my humble opinion.
