Hawker Hunter Aviation

Several gems of aviation history sit securely in steel clad hangars, forming part of a 17 acre complex on the western side of RAF Scampton. This is no museum however, and these pedigree aircraft have an active role within the military sphere of operations. Steve Smith and Mark Graham went to visit the Hawker Hunters of Defence Contractor HHA Ltd for AeroResource.

Enjoyed reading this, excellent photography too.

A lot of the shots are by Jon Hylands, who is a member of the forum. Quite a few others have come from HHA and Martin Jorgenson.

Cheers

So, it is possible that we could see a Bucc in UK skies at some point?? Thats a mouthwatering prospect!

If a client requirement materialises, then yes, it's quite possible!

Great to see ex-FRADU cab XF994/873 is slowly coming back to life... GA.11 G-GAII looks ready to go also.
Cracking report!
