On display at RAF Museum Hendon. The Hart served in the day bomber and recce role with eighteen RAF squadrons. It was used in Abyssinia and the NWFP for quelling uprisings and subsequently achieved success as an export model. The design influenced the Hawker Demon, Audax, Osprey, Hardy, Hind and Hector. This Hart II trainer powered by a 525 hp Rolls-Royce Kestrel IB was registered as G-ABMR and served as a demonstration aircraft for Hawker. It was painted in 1963 to represent a Hart of No. 57 Sqn that operated the type from 1931-36. This photo is copyright © Arjun Sarup, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
