He can remember making a least one DL8 and a couple of DL17's that got exported but not who they were for, anybody got any idea's as to who they may have gone to ?.

Hawk were based at Southend on Sea airport and often used the runways for testing purposes !!, imagine that today ?

Anyway thought it maybe of interest to someone.
