There's a great picture of Stephen Gray's Hawk 75 taken at the Planes of Fame with Steve Hinton at the controls. Great looking ship and markings...... http://www.planesoffame/pof-p36.jpg

PS.

According to Air Britain news, this aircraft registration G-CCVH has been recently been cancelled by the CAA (on 06.10.04) - So will it be coming to the UK now??

The aircraft was air-tested in the US, therefore it needed to be on the US register, therefore it coulddn't be on the UK register at the same time, therefore it was cancelled from the UK register.

Some stunning Dibbs air-to-airs of the Hawk 75 in the latest FlyPast. I believe that there are also some O'Leary ones in the next Aeroplane, due next week.

What a lovely thing, hopefully we'll see it at Duxford before much longer (February was the latest date that I heard mentioned).

A very well done to Stephen Grey, and to all those across the world involved in this unique restoration. :D
