I'm in agreement with the last two posts. A tow hook would be nice...but not worth such a long wait. let's get them into production now.

Hi Guys
I am one who wants a tow hook but I agree with you guys, lets not hold up production any further, I can fit my own as I usually do.
Glen if you want any testing/information re towhooks for future production I am happy to provide feedback to you.

KMOT- I can assure you there are many modellors who do Aerotowing in the US.

Cheers
Paul

Hi there guys can I sugest the red white scheeme or the blue white as they are nice and easy to see in the sky and won't be as prone to going wrinkley. Ok well way too late but here is a pic of my tow hook set up in my hanger 9 pawnee this system also works in larger scales too the tow hook I use is 4 40 rod when I tow 40% models I use 3mm piano wire for the pin.....oh and this is what I have been flying and towing for the last 3 years....40% Schweizer 40lb

Alex and Glen,
Orange stripe on the rudder would be great, I love this color/design scheme.

BTW....
No one answered my question in post #121. Does anyone have an answer?

Thanks. Canopy looks great, by the way. For an ARF, this model oozes with quality. Can't wait 'till June/July!

Hi Alex!

Thanks for the updates! Exciting! So you guys are going to offer the red, white and blue as well as the orange and black? Geez, I might have to get both! Guess I'll need to pick up an extra job so I can afford it! haha I like the idea of the orange stripe on the rudder. As far as the canopy goes, this looks more like a Pawnee canopy to me. I'll have to see it on the airplane. I do like the detail on it though. Can't wait for more pics and videos! Have fun at the Coota Rally!
