Hey Komi, No one has flown this aircraft yet except for Anton. We will be receiving the aircraft in November and I will be doing a Skymaster USA build thread and eval flight for more detailed info for our customers on setup and flights!

Hey Danny! Any new detailed photos of these New Jets? They were both displayed at JWM, I know some pictures could have been taken. You said Chief has a container coming late November, if that's the case with 10 on order, I would say 3-4 should be completed by now and should be smiling for the camera. Or is this jet still in the testing phase? I see that Skymaster adds items to the big Hawk page often. Which tells me maybe that is not yet ready for production. Is Nov & Dec. realistic delivery times? Anyword?

Now we're talking! Keep them coming? Any 100's on first ship or pics? Any interior pics of structure, ducting, elevator mechanism, cockpit etc...? Skymaster's 1/4 scale pilot was to small for my Skygate Hawk so i'm guessing it is definitely to small for this one. Any idea of a new pilot that will fit from them?

Very nice flight. Awesome work with the expedited solution to the door opening in flight. Based on the amazing response to this airframe, expect to see quite a few at the flight lines this season! Cool thing also is that several of them have custom paint schemes requested by customers not seen before. Skymaster has done an incredible job at fulfilling customers request and those schemes will now be available for customers!

I see a lot of the planes now with a light kits, is this something that skymaster will offer, the planes coming to cheifaircraft will they have the lights installed as well? When I checked the chief aircraft website the hawks listed did not have a light option.
