Rik Thistle Posted February 24 #190 Posted February 24 (edited) OC, Great build! I've seen the Harriers do their stuff at many airshows...nothing beats seeing a fighter jet flying backwards! I imagine you have read it, but just in case, 'Sea Harrier Over The Falklands' - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sea-Harrier-Over-Falklands-PAPERBACKS/dp/0304355429 is a no-punches-pulled account of what 'possibly' happened in the Falklands. "Sharkey Ward commanded 801 Naval Air Squadron, HMS Invincible, was senior Sea Harrier adviser to the Command, flew over sixty missions and was awarded DSC. Yet had he followed all his instructions to the letter, Britain might well have lost the Falklands War."

king derelict Posted February 24 #191 Posted February 24 That is a great book. Sharkey upset a few of the brass with some of his insights as I recall. i just finished Hazard Spectrum by Nate Grey , one of the F-35 test pilots. He devotes quite a lot of his book to flying Harriers with the Fleet Air Arm. Very readable book and quite a guy The Harrier was a great program to work on. The difficulties and limitations but it’s great capabilities made everyone work together in a really positive way Thats a lovely model OC. I have 1/72 Sea Harrier, X-32B and F-35B kits and a plan for a small diorama at some point. If only I could speed up the process a bit Alan Rik Thistle, AJohnson, mtaylor and 2 others 5 Quote
