LSP_Kevin Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Michael Drechsler has a new review for us: Model Alliance AIRframe Decals MA-32115: BAe Hawk in Worldwide Service Thanks Michael! Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek B Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Nice review from Michael. As far as export Hawk customers are concerned (and not including the RAF and USN T-45 Goshawk), I make it 17 in total (as you can add Bahrain and India to the list; the Swiss Hawks now all being owned by Finland). I am just waiting for receipt of my Kinetic Hawk 100 kit and I can then resume work on my Hawk update AM stuff (including picking up my T-45 conversion and I will be looking at a Hawk 200 series conversion as well).

Iain Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Just to add that many readers may not be aware that Model Alliance/Aviation Workshop is no more - as of March 2012 IIRC. Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek Ah, my fault, I made a quick count, but as Abu Dhabi and Dubai were condensed under the UAE flag, it fell one short... Just to add that many readers may not be aware that Model Alliance/Aviation Workshop is no more - as of March 2012 IIRC. Iain Good to know! I have a distant memory of some talk including some serious legal issues for the owner. Interestingly, I bought that sheet middle of this year - after my vendor restocked! In that case - grab 'em, while they are still available! Iain and Derek B 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Yes - very serious 'legal issues'! IIRC most of the stock was acquired by other companies (I've got a few of their books cheap in the last year) - so as you say - grab them if and when you see them!!

Derek B Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Ah, my fault, I made a quick count, but as Abu Dhabi and Dubai were condensed under the UAE flag, it fell one short... Michael, You're right, that would make the corrected figure 15 export customers (Finland, Kenya, Indonesia, Zimbabwe, UAE (Abu Dhabi and Dubai), Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Oman, Malaysia, Canada, Australia, South Africa, Bahrain and India). It is unfortunate that Model Decal Alliance fell foul of legal issues. Derek KOTR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
