Great news with the development of the Bearhawk 5 (great name BTW)


Cigars all around


Wanted to congratulate Bob Barrows, Mark Goldberg, prototype builder Colin Campbell and the protype pilot Rollie Va Dorn. With Jared Yates doing continuing flight testing.

This sort of collaboration just would not be possible any where else. Shows the positive energy of the Bearhawk community.

The walk around video was very well done, great work on Jared’s part

Great job guys

Having trouble waiting. Does anybody know when the plans might be available? Or if there’s a sign up list?

Thanks

You could probably start on the wings without delay.

if you have plans that have the Bravo wings...then you are good to go on the wings....

I`ve made changes to the spar and ribs to streamline scratch building construction...that Bob gave the ok to.....but that was for the 4 place...with a lower gross

I didnt want to pepper Bob with a ton of questions...until after the release of the plans...

Bob told me yesterday that he was thinking of not releasing the Model 5 plans until the kit factory has made the first batch of kits. "This winter" is what he said. His intention in doing this is to let the experienced guys at the kit factory find any issues with the plans before releasing them to plans builders.

The wings for the Model 5 kits will all have the one piece cap strips, and the drawings will have them also. That's obviously not what the prototype's wings have so Bob might show some flexibility there. It would be something to discuss with Bob. Mark
