Hawker Hunter gb *** Complete/Archived ***

Post by Gregers »

I stated in the aviation modelling part of the forum that a Hunter gb would be a good idea. Time to put money where mouth is so to speak. So how about it?. Any kit, manufacturer, scale etc as long s it is a HawkerHunter, Dirivatives and unbuilt projects are allowed ad long as they have provenance. What if's ok too as long as there is precident in real life re air forces that planned / looked into purchasing Hunters. So how about it?.

All the best.

Might be time for me to do another, after all these years..... ;-) I have the Revell kit and the PJ Production T.7 conversion set. Might do a Swiss Miss two-seater.

Oh all right, I asked for it!
My first GB for this forum. I usually have too many on the go to fit in another one, but you can't have too many Hunters!
This is where I can tackle the 1/72 Plastyk/Airfix kitbash.

Well, that's seven of us. Enough for a G/B. Lets talk dates here. Post Telford I assume?. Or early next year?.

All the best.

After Telford will be fine (not that I'm going but USS Iwo Jima will take until then I suspect). I might, note might, build my Revell 1/32 Hunter if the GB is long enough...... :)
