The next version was, not surprisingly, the Series 2. This was powered by more powerful Dart engines the Dart 531 rated at 1910 shp giving the Series 2 the capability of carrying a greater load over a longer range. <br> In 1963 the Hawker Siddeley Group decided to combine the names of the companies within the group into one and well known names like Gloster and A V Roe became known as Hawker Siddeley Aviation Ltd. The Avro 748 became the Hawker Siddeley 748 (HS748) overnight. <br> By 1967 the Series 2A was introduced. This had more powerful engines fitted - the Rolls Royce Dart 532 which again improved the performance of the aircraft. Many operators subsequently upgraded their Series 2 aircraft to 2A standard by fitting replacement engines. <br> In 1977 Hawker Siddeley and the British Aircraft Corporation merged into British Aerospace. The designation of the aircraft now became the British Aerospace 748 (BAe748). <br> The final version of the 748 to be built was the Series 2B with even more powerful engines, the Dart 536-2. </font><b><br> &nbsp;</b></font></td> </tr> </table> <TABLE style="WIDTH: 767px" borderColor=#ff9900 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=767 border=1><TR><TD bgColor=#000000 > <A href="index.htm" > <IMG height=35 alt=Homepage hspace=0 src="media/ButtonHome.jpg" width=150 border=0 vtLSBMark="0"></A> </TD><TD bgColor=#000000><a href="index.htm"> <IMG height=35 alt="Previous Page" hspace=0 src="media/ButtonPrev.jpg" width=150 border=0 vtLSBMark="0"></a><a href="page_8.htm"> </a></TD> <TD bgColor=#000000><a href="page_10.htm"><IMG height=35 alt="Next Page" hspace=0 src="media/ButtonNext.jpg" width=150 border=0 vtLSBMark="0"></a></TD><TD bgColor=#000000 ><a href="page_6.htm"><IMG height=35 alt=Links hspace=0 src="media/ButtonLinks.jpg" width=150 border=0 vtLSBMark="0"> </a> </TD> <TD bgColor=#000000> <a href="mailto:rick_piper@btopenworld.com"><IMG height=35 alt="Send Me Mail" hspace=0 src="media/ButtonEmail.jpg" width=150 border=0 vtLSBMark="0"></a></TD></TR></TABLE></P> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> <p><b><font size="4" face="Tahoma">FS2002®</font></b><font size="4" face="Tahoma"> </font><b><font face="Tahoma" size="4"> Aircraft Model built in&nbsp; <font color="#800080">FSDS pro</font> by Me as my First Project.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </font></b></p> <p><b><font face="Tahoma" size="4">Animated using <font color="#800080">Aircraft Animator</font> &amp; <font color="#800080">SDL Edit.</font></font></b></p> <p><b><font face="Tahoma" size="4">Painted using <font color="#800080">Paint Shop Pro</font> and <font color="#800080">Visual Aircraft Studio GE.</font></font></b></p> <p><b> <font color="#800080" face="Tahoma" size="1">&nbsp;</font></b></p> <P><FONT face="Tahoma" size=1><STRONG>I am very grateful to David Maltby &amp; his wife Jo Maltby for&nbsp;their help and encouragement with this project.</STRONG></FONT></P> <table border="2" cellspacing="1" width="84%" id="AutoNumber4" bordercolor="#FF9900" bgcolor="#000000"> <tr> <td width="90%"><strong><font face="Tahoma" size="2" color="#FF0000">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ********************Important Notice***************************Re-Paints</font></strong><P> <strong><font face="Tahoma" color="#FF0000">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; PLEASE can you leave the original Readme intact when posting repaints.</font></strong></P> <P><strong><font face="Tahoma" size="2" color="#FF00FF">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (various Re-paints turning up on FS.com with my name in new text file but nothing else?)</font></strong></P> <P><strong><font face="Tahoma" size="2" color="#FF00FF">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Please respect my copyright (you don&#39;t even have to ask to re-paint).</font></strong></P> <P><strong><font face="Tahoma" size="2" color="#FF00FF">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Thanks.</font></strong></P> <p><b><font color="#00FF00" size="5" face="Tahoma">&nbsp;!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
