NEW VIDEO Bearhawk kit factory tour

[Mark Goldberg]

There was just a video added to our website that is a tour of our kit factory. Greg Swingle makes great videos and did excellent work on this one. There is a link for it on our website under Bearhawk Aircraft. But here is the link that will also take you to the video:

Excellent video Mark, those boys do good work

[Zzz]

That was awesome.

[Battson]

Really nice video Mark - great to see you were there giving Greg the grand tour!

After seeing the video, I know the Bearhawk is superbly constructed with all the best practices by experts. I cannot wait to get my hands on one. Thanks for taking the time Mark, to show us some more of the factory and give us a glimpse of the level of craftsmanship customers will receive.

[Mark Goldberg]

Thank you. We do our best to provide the best quality kits and parts we can. There is no perfection in this world - including our work. Cessna, Beechcraft, etc. - all have AD's and occasional issues with their production. But we do our best. And if there is any problem we try hard to make it right with customers. Mark

[Zzz]

I've had nothing but top notch service and support, despite being a frequent burr in Mark's saddle.

Mark, so with things like capacity in the aux tanks, will the factory just start making tanks a bit bigger because of your suggestions, or will it have to go through the company channels before the change is made?

[Mark Goldberg]

They made one tank (that you saw in the video) from instructions from Bob Barrows about how much space to leave on all sides. After looking at the tank in the rib bay where it will go - it was obvious they could make it a little wider. It held 9 gallons as originally built. Adding a little more capacity will not add much fuel - maybe 1 to 1.5 gallons max. MG

[akb3]

An extra gallon is worth a lot if you're even considering the aux tanks to begin with. Glad to hear there is a constant quality control going on between you and the boys in Mexico. Bien hecho.

Mark is the company channel.

Awesome video Greg! Mark, thanks for taking the time for this. What a great facility!

[Yadama]

Great video.

Explains the outstanding workmanship visible on my kit..

[whee]

Nice work Greg and Mark. Makes me wish I had a set of factory wings even more.

[BAnton]

Me too. However, It's rewarding to see the confused look on people's faces when I tell them all the parts for the wing were fabricated by me from rolls of aluminum. Also I decided I would be too old to fly the plane if I did the fuselage from scratch, so broke down and bought the AviPro fuselage.

[Battson]

It would be great to put this video on the Bearhawk Aircraft YouTube channel too. I tried to get my friends to find it, but not everyone is a Vimeo buff.

[Zzz]

Good reason to just send them the direct URL.

[mswain]

Enjoyed the video a lot. I think it tells a great story about your product!

Great video. Glad you and Bob got connected with Greg. He has a lot of talent.

[BAnton]

Wow!! Great video by Greg. Impressive work at the factory as evidenced every time I put the pieces together on the fuselage.

[PropMan]

Great Video Mark. Just a couple more craftsmen and you could be rolling out completed planes!
