Hawk V Albatros

[Ian Warren]

Quite simply the Albatros has been on the New Zealand Airshow curcit , you can pay to go for a ride of your life .. as a backseater .
Both Blake and Paul ( Naki and Whaka172 ) have it and give it a high recommend , i backed off it , maybe because i had the Hawk , Today i installed only the Red Arrow pack and went for a quick ride around Marlborough in the backseat to compare


The Hawk with a very similar performance to the A4 Skyhawk , T45s are proof in the pudding



Looking at screens from our Jet jock airshow pilots , and some reason maybe because they are so accessable world wide to go for a ride makes it an ideal choice

Maybe NZ should get some Hawks!! And some Albatross's and the RNZAF can give rides. They will pay for themselves after a while......

would have been a thought but for the deletion of the strike wing and since Australia licence build them , had we still have , or go turn around , maybe a least deal but i dont think so .

Or for a brilliant free one, try Dino Cattaneo's T-45C (the USN version) here:

You are right Mark , Dino's T-45 is superb , but i'm comparing dollar for dollar , Yes the BAe Hawk is high end advantage trainer and plus to the AERO L39 , and why its a hot potato compared to the Hawk in FSX .... Im one who just simply buys to try .. seen both display real time , .. some reason ...

Early Observer book , i defined it as the best thing then .... but that was 1973 / 74 ..
