Revell 1:32 BAe Hawk T.Mk.1. (04284)
RAF Benevolent Fund Display Hawk, XX307 No 208 (R) Squadron
RAF Valley 2009.
2014#23
The Revell Red Arrows machine made as the RAF Benevolent Fund Display Hawk XX307 using the Xtradecal set X32-034. Brush painted with Humbrol enamels.
Really impressed with the way the kit goes together, only encountered a couple of small issues with the undercarriage, firstly the U/C retractor was slightly too long. Secondly, there are door actuators which attach the doors to the main oleos, if making a wheels down version the longer of the two actuators should go on the front of the oleo wit the shorter one on the rear, I’m sure I followed the instructions but managed to put them on wrong.
