Hello Tom.

We have cockpits on out incomming order. We will have them in stock on the 15th. The bypass we would have to order for you. Aprox. 2 weeks on the bypass.
Go to our website www.skymaster-usa.com and go to the dealer link to find the nearest dealer to you.
They will be happy to take your order.

Tom,
I have an unused Bypass for the SM hawk that I got with my kit that I will not be using. If you are interested in it e-mail me and for $60 I will ship it to you. I am using a P120se and I was told Bypass is not necessary. It will be ballistic without it.

I also did my main doors a little different than shown here. I will try and get photos this weekend and show my technique. It is actually the technique used on the comp-arf lightning.

Thanks Scott, I plan on using an Eagle in mine. I like the bypass as I think it provides a little more protection for the motor. I'm out of town right now and will email when I get back home about the bypass. Look forward to seeing your main door pix.

Could anyone tell me if the doors on the SM Hawk require any sequencing? In other words do any of the doors close after gear comes down (UP2) or do they stay open when the gear is down (UP3)? I've not rec'd my plane yet but want to order the UP valve now. Thanks!

The doors on the Hawk stay open when the gear is down, so no sequencing required. The doors on the T45, the USNavy Goshawk version, do close when the gear is down, so would need sequencing.
