I think we need to do something with this.
Currently we have a host of different topics for the Curtiss Hawk; many conversion sets are designed for use with kits under different topic (as this, for Monogram's P-6E).
As it was an evolutive design, I think it would be better to merge all under two topics 'Curtiss Hawk - Army models' and 'Curtiss Hawk - Navy models', just as the Squadron In Action books.
What do you think?

Ok, let's put all Goshawks in the same egg basket 🙂
Some of the export Hawk III reverted to the original wooden framed wing from F11C instead of the metalframed wing of BF2C so there are ties between the different versions.
But, it's sometimes better to merge the topics, sometimes not.
Boeing P-12 and F4B are all under "Boeing P-12"
The 109 topic can be a a pain too look through if your searching for any of the not so common versions.
Next nightmare is the Mirage III,5, IAI Dagger, Nesher, Finger and Atlas Cheetah.
They are all mixed between "Mirage III", "Mirage V" and "Denel Cheetah".
Some of the kits share sprues for both versions but you can't link them to each other over the topics.

Yes, I agree. I exposed to Tim the trouble about crossed topics some time ago, but there is no solution at this time.
Most popular planes are a bit of pain, really. Even worse when there are several different toolings in the same brand, not to say when any of those toolings comes from another company.
