First I have heard of it. I quit getting MAN last year since it didn't offer much anymore. Maybe you could scan and post the ad?

It's not on www.greatplanes.com so I'd guess the prototype is all that currently exists.

Here's the stock number and suggested retail price. Delivery is estimated to be in December of this year.
GPMA1219 CURTISS P-6E HAWK 60-120 ARF $599.99
Not really "officially" announced in ads or on the web page, but it has been shown around.

600 bucks? Damn, they're proud of that thing. The Stearmans are about the same size, $200 less. But you're right, it will be on MY list, too I think they got a winner here.

That $600 is likely the MSRP they slap on it so it makes you feel like your getting a discount when you pay the real price like the Stearmans. I would guess the price will be identical to the Stearmans they have.

Great planers wont add any product to their site until its ready to ship or shipping so dont put any faith to see it there for a while.

Looks beautiful. But $479.99 is pushing what my tiny part of the market can bear.[

Agreeded.
$379 from a $499 retail price - like the PT-17 Stearman - and I'd buy one. But I'm with you on that $479 price tag - just too much. []

Let's see:
It is a larger model
- It has a much more complicated color scheme
- There's a large painted fiberglass cowl
- It's the only one of it's type to be available,
- plus it looks really cool!
And, there's a lot to be said for Cool....
That's worth an additional hundred bucks by itself
