    He is going to have my Patrol for a good while. I do have my LSA that you are welcome to come and see. And my 4 place BH as well. Mark

    Mark, when's that guy going to be done? I was thinking of coming to your place to have a look at a Patrol and an LSA in the spring.

    Frank - it is not here. A YouTube social media guy is flying it around and making videos with it. He has just started. Look for FLY8MA on YouTube. Mark

    Great! Can you get them in a carbon fiber look? When I zoomed in on the iPad, the carbon fiber really showed up and looks pretty cool, in my opinion.

    The tires are 26' Goodyears I already had on hand. Little window doesn't really do much. But it is nice. Not sure if it is worth the trouble though. This plane has a lot of paint on it. Less paint would be a great start. Lighter tires also. Temper foam on the seats is a few lbs. It was heavier than I expected. Mark

    I have a few questions for you Mark;
    1) Are your tires the Desser 8.50 x 6 four ply?
    2) How do you like the little window in the door?
    3) Based on how yours was built (I assume no interior like the the previous Patrol you had.) how could I get my empty weight less than 1200 pounds?

    I can make those, either in vinyl to apply, or in tenporary vinyl as a paint mask. Send me a note to web@bearhawkstore.com We will need to know the overall length desired, and color unless it is a mask.

    Those are carbon fiber wingtips from Bob, and the letters were taped/masked when the paint was shot. The black letters are just looking through to the underlying carbon fiber. Mark
