During the initial release, Chief wasn't offering with the lights because the lights were not out. Now you can order them with lights installed at the factory.

In case you guys have not seen these fantasy schemes. I think I'm still stuck on the RAF 100, but something unique would be nice too.

Since I have one of the hawks on order I was wondering if the boat on the water yet. If they are going to get here on time (end of November supposedly) I am hoping it is on time and on the way.

Any word yet?

I think the pics of the 5 Hawks in previous post will be on the first boat! If your not one of those, then your probably looking at after Chinese New years! Realistically!

Default Pictures of new Hawk

I am sure there are more than 5 Hawks on one container but I know mine is supposed to be delivered end of November. Mine is not the new big one but should be on the same container. Dana already sent me pictures of mine and I have paid the balance which I think is paid whenever they are ready to ship so I was just curious if it had left china yet. Was hoping Chief would chime in with an update.

Oh ok! I thought you were referring to the large Hawk! Actually, I ordered the large Hawk in that same scheme! I'm thinking after Chinese new years on mine!

This is the plane I would like but already with the lights ready to go, but in the larger version.

Also price wise there is not much difference between the 1.475 and the 1.37 I think maybe 1600?

Gary, please contact Dana about your aircraft. Dana does not read these forums so he would not know to answer your questions. If you have a question about your order, the correct method is to contact chief aircraft directly.

Same response, you should contact Dana directly for updates. Looking at this thread, we don't have your actual name to be able to answer your inquiry!

Nice hard flight. Seems like the airframe is handling the stresses very well. Can you snap a few pics of the inside/setup? Bypass?
Thanks, Jay

Thank you, looks awesome. I didn't realize it was fully ducted. I'm curious to see if it can be transported & assembled at the field by 1 person, or if I'm going to need help. I'm betting there is a way.

Skymaster,

Have you tested this with a 300N turbine? What type of fuel setup would be needed for a 300 size setup?

The demo Hawks should be here middle of this month. I will be doing a Skymaster/Chief build thread on it. Keep an eye out for it!

I ordered mine pretty recently & was told there is a February shipment. 30 days if it goes to their west coast branch & 45 if it goes to the east coast. So I figure March or some time in April we should be getting them to our doors.

Well, I hope that is not the case! I ordered mine in Sept. that would be a 6 month wait. I was told that there will be 2 shipments one in Nov. and one in Dec. and that mine would be on the Dec. boat!

Danny, please chime in with a better estimate of delivery, if you can. I'm not looking for a song and dance, but would rather like a straight forward answer. When I considered purchasing, the sense of urgency from C.A. for payment to get it on the December boat was there. I purchased this with hopes of having it mid to late January, have it built. tested and ready for FL Jets 2016. Now learning that mine is just on order is disappointing considering the realization of delivery in March 2016. I'll await your response!

Thanks in advance!
