My Feedback: (41)
Bill that's by design. It's top secret. Actually BJ would like to keep it a bit on the downlow.
All I can assure you is it won't be long. Is another significant step in the evolution of design. We have a lot riding on this and we know what is coming in the spring.
Until it's ready to announce we all have to wait.

Mike,
That's totally kool and I completely understand (lack of copy cat laws oversea's). I just wanted to make sure I wasn't the only person that couldn't see the pic.
BTW: Sending you a Pm on a different B.J Aircraft for availability.

Hi Mike
These day, I frequently talk with BJ Park how to make my Nuance, whenever on the phone, he talks a lot about his G2.
He would joke that G2 is the second generation short for. and not the second generation of BJ's planes but the second generation of whole world as the standard pattern plane. (believe it or not
) anyway, he will soon announce that his G2 main concept at his web. and few more different G2 versions will be launched soon.
I'm also look forward to seeing the plane soon.

I glanced it slightly.The G2 has the mono plane with canalizer. and the most impressed one is... it has the most largest side area which I never ever seen before.
I also look forward it.

The common shape stab is also a flying stab.....no elevators so it needs only one servo.
Some comments from here.....
I would rather not have a removable engine cover on the E-version. I cant imagine anyone these days using a glow engine on this airplane...especially built this lightly.
In my opinion.....I understand why the canopy is so much smaller in length but the real problem for me is the distance of the nose from the spinner ring to the leading edge of the canopy.
This would probably be okay if everyone put the battery as far back as the pictures show.....but I don't know anyone that has the c/g that far back.
That setup went out many years ago.....thankfully.
Apparently the leading edge of the battery is over the landing gear in the pictures.
With the battery tray in a more conventional position more or less in front of the gear.....there is not much or any room to get 2 hands in the nose to plug in the battery.
Otherwise.....I like the airplane....a lot!
Especially the fuselage mounted canalizer
I also like the strake down the bottom of the fuselage.....it adds strength against a cave in as well as adding side area.
I prefer the double taper conventional wing and flying stab too.
