	The Pioneers : An Anthology : Harry George Hawker (1889 - 1921)
		Hawker believed that in England he would soon learn to fly and the young man of scarcely 22 years of age left his native shores hoping of success in the new sphere and perhaps at the same time wondering if he was doing the right thing.
		Hawker was met by friends soon after the `Maloja' had berthed and was taken to the St Kilda Town Hall, where he was greeted by the Mayor of St Kilda and citizens and councillors from St Kilda, Brighton and Moorabbin.
		Hawker was forced to land only a few miles short of the finish line and for his efforts was awarded a 'special prize' of 1000 pounds by the newspaper.

	Hawker-Siddeley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hawker Siddeley Group designs in the Hawker-Siddeley stable included the Gloster Meteor, the first Allied jet fighter, and one of the world's most outstanding post war jet aircraft, the Hawker Hunter, which set a world speed record of 728 mph in 1953.
		Hawker and de Havilland merged in 1959, followed by Blackburn Aircraft, Avro (U.K), A.V. Roe Canada (commonly known as Avro Canada) and Whitworth (already part of Hawker), Folland and Gloster over the next year, forming the makeup of the Hawker Siddeley Group in the late 1950s.
		The UK-based firm was renamed Hawker Siddeley Switchgear in 1992.

	Hawker Hurricane - Great Britain
		The Hawker Hurricane was the first fighter monoplane to join the Royal Air Force and the first combat aircraft adopted by that arm capable of exceeding 300 m.p.h.
		The Hurricane shouldered the lion's share of Britain's defense during the " Battle of Britain," and was largely responsible for the successful outcome of this conflict.
		The Hawker monoplane was a clean aircraft, with tubular metal construction and fabric covering, similar to those of the earlier Fury fighter biplanes.

	Hawker
		Hawker had long since established itself as a maker of very good fighter aircraft, dating back to World War I. In 1933, the chief designer of Hawker, Sydney Camm, proposed a design of a new monoplane largely based upon the Hawker Fury biplane, to be powered by the Rolls Royce Goshawk engine.
		Hawker’s Sydney Camm set to work and he and his team designed a fighter that would be tested with each engine.
		Hawker, however, could not envision that the Typhoon would become the scourge of the Wehrmacht.

	The Hawker Hurricane
		Hawker submitted a formal design to the Air Ministry on 4 September 1934 that featured the PV.12 engine, though the aircraft was still to be armed with four Vickers guns.
		Further clashes followed, with the Hawker fighter demonstrating that it was as formidable in combat as it had promised to be.
		Hawker got the go-ahead to build a prototype and began work on it in mid-1935, but the company's preoccupation with the Hurricane meant that the prototype of the "Henley", as it was called, didn't perform its first flight until 10 March 1937.

	HAWKER TYPHOON FACTS AND INFORMATION (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The two resulting models became known as the 'R' and 'N' (based on the engine manufacturer) and were very similar – the Vulture powered R plane had a rounder nose profile and a ventral radiator, whereas the Sabre powered N had a flatter deck and a chin mounted radiator.
		The basic design of both continued the Hawker tradition of using 'older' construction techniques; the front fuselage was welded steel just like the Hurricane, and the design used a massive 40 foot (12 m) wing that was much thicker than those on designs like the Spitfire.
		Hawker developed an improved version of the Typhoon, the Typhoon II but the differences between it and the Mark I were so great that it was effectively a different plane, the Hawker Tempest.

	The Hawker Typhoon and Tempest - Great Britain
		Structurally both types were similar: the wings were all-metal, the front fuselage was of steel tubing, and the aft section consisted of a stressed-skin, flush-riveted monocoque--the first Hawker designs to employ this form of construction.
		It was proposed that the new fighter should be built both by Hawker and by A.V. Roe at Woodford.
		It had already been established that the NACA 22-series wing section employed by the Typhoon, was entirely satisfactory at speeds in the vicinity of 400 mph, but encountered compressibility effects at higher speeds.

	Hawker Hurricane Aircraft \| Aviation History\| Hawker Blueprints
		The details of the fuselage, tail, nose and radiator of the monoplane closely resembled those of the biplanes, but its major difference was the fitting of a metal-frame, fabric-covered monoplane wing that contained an inward-retracting landing gear.
		In September 1934, Hawker showed drawings of the new design (which used two nose guns and one gun in each wing) to the Air Ministry.
		Hawker sold 12 Hurricanes to Finland in January 1940 during that country's first war with Russia, and by the time of the second, or "Continuation," war, the Russians also had Hurricanes.
