Tempest fuselage conversion possibilities?

Posted by Cees Broere on Mon Apr 21, 2003 03:04:26 PM

Hi all,

Since the Hawker Typhoon is not very well represented in the various museums other than MN235 and some cockpit sections, I was thinking the following:

Suppose a Tempest fuselage was located would it be possible to convert this back to Typhoon specifications without any much trouble?

By removing the section in front of the cockpit added when the Tempest was designed and altering the fin a Typhoon fuselage is recreated, ......or is this more complicated?

Dave, have you thought about this possibility, apart from obtaining a spare Tempest fuselage.
