Hawker Hart was created by Alexrcm
I am going to build Hawker Hart model. The scale will be 1:4,5.
Can anybody help with close-up photos of it's details like strut connections, instruments, etc.? I am located in Moscow, so it is difficult for me to visit UK museums. I am also curious what airfoil it's wings had.
Thanks: Klipkopwildlife

You might find what you are looking for on here -

or similar 'virtual' museum tours.

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

I can only find a wing section quoted for the Hawker Fury 1 which used RAF-28 .

It would be reasonable to assume that all the equivalent Hawker biplanes of the era would use the same wing section.
I hope this helps.

How do I save these images to my PC in one go rather than selecting each image individually and saving them (you know, where usually you would Ctrl+Select then save)?
These are really useful for a future project.

Can't help you ST, perhaps a PM to Kiwi, he might be kind enough to send them in an email.

When you see such 'restoration' pictures it makes you realise just how similar the construction of the Hart is to the Hurricane
Hart
Hurricane

A bit more attention to the woodwork streamlining but the underlying structure is virtually identical.

Well the old story is that the Hurricane was basically a Fury without the top wing....
