New H9 T-28 Trojan Arf ??

I am hearing rumors of a new H9 T-28 Trojan ARF, something large, in the 90-100 " range that may be forth coming. Anyone else have any scoop on this ?
I think it would be a great seller for them if there is any truth to it.
Your thoughts ?

I just hope it is true! Another great idea would be a Top Flite GS ARF....in the 110"WS zone.

Any guesses as to what size engine would go in a plane this size?

If its in the 100" w/s range I believe the Byron T28 was 1/5 scale and 98" w/s. There is a video out there of one with a 100cc twin, so that would be sweet

Awesome! this rumor has me putting the skids on a project I was gonna pull the trigger on, a big t28 with a 3 piece wing and 100cc twin would be worth waiting for!

Where there's smoke there's often fire.

Could be they are testing the waters, as well. One thing is for sure, if they release this model and you really like it, buy another one cause it will have a short life in Horizon's inventory.

The Toledo Show is a little over a month away (April 5,6,7). If Horizon doesn't have a "Show" model at their booth... I would think it is not going to happen anytime soon, if at all.
