Default RE: Yet another BAe Hawk, curious...

I gave up on my JHH/AMD Hawk. AMD Hawk is not suitable for turbine. The hardward package is not good enough, so my builder has to rework most of the stuff. The monokote skin is weak. Try the new JHH's ARF A7. It's a completely different plane. Way better in quality, scale and pre-finished and will fly with a WREN 44. Got some stick time on JHH's prototype a few month ago. Great, easy flyer. The flat bottom ( I think it could be a cambered one) makes low speed stable. The A7 is avaible in DF and Turbine. I bought 1 each, but still waiting for delivery. I figure that I will fly the EDF version in my local club because it bans turbine. then I will fly turbine one in another field once a while if I am craving for speed and noise.

I am asking Larry Wolfe of JHH to see if they are working on a new Hawk. The answer is still vague. He wants to know what size that they should make their new hawk for. There are too many hawks out there in different size. What can our hawk fans recommend to JHH? I would like to have a Wren 54 size hawk, but I might go w/ JL T-45. Any thoughts?

P.S. Traveling oversea is not fun, since I get no stick time on my plane. Thanks to RCU forum for some viewing pleasure and keyboard clicking time.
