Hawker Hector
After a production delay I have finally uploaded the Hawker Hector - this a/c comes with three textures by UncleTgt and the dp provides for a bomb load or supply panniers. A brief day in the front line attacking German forces surrounding Calais in May 1940 - the remainder of its service life spent towing Hotspur gliders in pilot training.

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Aircraft - British
Description: Biplane used by RAF prewar in Army Co-operation units - being passed to RAuxAF squadrons when war broke out.This a/c was briefly in the spotlight when flying sorties against German force surrounding Calais in May 1940. Although obsolete for front - and even second line service the Hector performed sterling service as a glider tug in the training of glider pilots for the emerging airborne forces.
Finally retired in late 1942; some were sold to the Irish Air Corps.

Thanks Baldy and Uncle , looks nice
Nice to see this little known biplane. Unfortunately for the pilots, the Brits had to fight with anything having wings in the early part of the war.
