WEB SITES

The Fly Navy Heritage Trust operate the world's only flying Sea Hawk, hopefully back in the air in 2004.
The IPMS Fleet Air Arm SIG have this Sea Hawk walkaround.
The Fly Navy site has a nice page on the Marineflieger's Sea Hawk Mk.100/101s.
The history section was largely based on Greg Goebel's Sea Hawk Vector, from his Air Vectors series.
Emmanuel Gustin's British military aircraft database includes entries for the Hawker types P.1040, P.1052, P.1072, P.1081 and the Sea Hawk itself.

BOOKS

The British Fighter since 1912 by Francis K. Mason published by Putnam, ISBN 0-85177-852-6. An invaluable reference to British fighter aircraft, includes several pages on the development of the Sea Hawk and related aircraft, with black and white pictures and small plans diagram. Highly recommended, though not purely as a Sea Hawk reference.
