The Gulfhawk 5 is AWESOME! 

[TheChronicOne]

One of the best things I've found recently. Could be this thing got into my sub conscience and influenced the direction I'm headed with my Gulf 66 racing glider.....  it even has "Gulf" in the name. I actually found this days ago...  I didn't make the connection until just now. I wish she had made a background story for it.

Replace the gold pin striping on the train with red and you have...

...BAT-TRAIN!

[TheChronicOne]

That sounds killer.....   in all the comics and side stories did Bruce Wayne ever have a train??  If not, this is prime whif material!  What a fantastic idea....     I can picture the engine, some cars, and a neat bat-caboose.. etc.    Robin could have his own little "pump cart" or whatever them lil things are.

The first thing the flying train reminded me of was Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang...

"1/48 Monogram F9F ,What if as a Gulfhawk 5."

Oh, I love that!

That Gulfhawk V is indeed a beauty. 

The real world Gulfhawk III was the two-seat G32
demonstrator, it combined features of the F3F-2 and
F3F-3, but What-If it had instead been an F4F Wildcat?
That would be rather attractive in the Gulf scheme.

The Gulfhawk VI would have to be an F11F, originally
in an orange scheme, repainted later in the '60s to the
blue and orange auto racing scheme.

Wasn't there an RW Gulfhawk IV with a Bearcat as its basis, or did I imagine it?

Nope! your memory is just fine Kit. Loads of photos of it doing a google search in images

So...would Gulfhawk VII be a Tomcat?

[PR19_Kit]

Oh yes, that's REALLY smart!

So...would Gulfhawk VII be a Tomcat?

I think an Intruder would fit the scheme well, though admittedly a bit slower than progress would expect.

Or a Gulfstream II, whilst that was still a Grumman product...

Here's one from the Ace Combat universe.

Found on Facebook but originally posted on twitter by "BaroBaronron".

(yeah yeah I know... don't blame me.. just doing my due diligence as always...     Run it through your preferred translator if you wish.)

"An helidron... 1/72, with recicled parts of a Sepecat Jaguar 1/100." 

I'm thinking he meant "helidrone."
