| Designed by Basil Henderson and
built by the Hendy Aircraft Co at
Shoreham in 1929, the Hobo was
originally powered by a 35hp ABC
Scorpion engine but was rebuilt in
1934 with a 90hp Pobjoy Cataract,
shown here on the only example,
which was raced until
1939.

We too have a model of the Hobo. and various photos of the Hobo, 302 and Hecks taken during construction and during test flights. We also have the drawings of the Heck and possibly some of the other planes. reply | Mark Pilkington, e-mail, 11.05.2010 21:50 I have a metal model of this plane. My Grandfather used to own it and race it. He was Lord Patrick Crichton Stuart. reply |
