Rolls-Royce Hucknall - Hawker Hunter 2007

 

Thursday 14th Dec Dr. Keith Mitchell's Hunter successfully completed its flight trails at Hucknall and now only needs a few further checks before it gets its certificate to fly at public displays.   Two turbines in the range of 38lbs thrust each.   Dry weight of 150lbs, and a  take off 176lbs. Flights were impressive with one club member who did not know what was happening ringing Derek to tell him a full-size Hunter had been flying at Hucknall.
