Swedish-built Hawker Hart to fly

摘要

Prominent Swedish vintage aircraft enthusiast Joakim Westh has revealed his plan to put a Swedish-built Hawker Hart biplane bomber back into the air, reports Jan Forsgren. Substantial fuselage and wing sections, about 50 percent of the airframe of one Hart, will form the basis of the rebuild. One complete Bristol Mercury radial engine, built by Nohab (later Svenska Flygmotor) is available for the project, and an investigation into the previous identity of the Hart is currently underway.
