[edit] Explanation

This page started as a simple plan to organize the Curtiss Model names. 10 hours later it became this rather long list. I hope it helps people find the Hawk Aircraft they are looking for out of all the choices of designations. And all I really wanted to do was add a link to the Curtiss F11C Goshawk page. --Colputt 04:03, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

Good job putting this together. I fixed some redirects for you: The SC Seahawk already exists, while the F6C Hawk page exists as a redirect to P-1 Hawk. I left F6C Hawk as a redirect as I assume you might be planning on an article on the F6C soon. (There is NO info on the P-1 Hawk page about the F-6C, so a new article on the F6C would probably be the best way to go. - BillCJ 15:29, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, I do like how Piotr Mikołajski adjusted the formatting, it looks much better now. I had tried about three diffrent methods, none looked as good as this one. I agree the F6C should be a seperate page the F6C had a radial engine vs the Vee of the P-1 and was intended for USMC use. I'll look into it. --Colputt 15:51, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

This page is now finished from where I sit. --Colputt 09:57, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
