Absolute bargain - can’t beat that for a fiver!
I presume you mean the Hawker product and not the modern after-burning version!? Unless you had a time machine in your childhood!Originally Posted by Lancaster
I also presume you’ve seen the restoration of one that is ongoing? Sam, one of the Trustees is a pilot at ARCo.

I wasn't aware of that, noI'll have a look though TA!!
My dad used to buy me airfix kits on pay day when I was a kid and it would have been about '64/'65 when I was 6/7 that he brought home the Tiffy and a Mig (15 or 17) and built them for me.
He probably told me about the Tiffy and it'll have gone over my head but I've never forgotten those 2 and a Focke Wulfe 190 too.
I've always liked the Tiffy, Tempest and Mosquito as well as the BoB 3.

My first ever Airfix model was a Typhoon too - spent ages painting it and then it took pride of place in the ‘squadron’!
Here’s their website: www.hawker-typhoon.com. The Supporters Club is worth a look too, they often have a big presence the usual airshows..

Hahahahaha I've also considered making a comeback and starting another squadron.
Ideal for a rainy day as long as you've got a good collection of paint and a tube of glue.
