Vintage plane kit
Hi all I am new to the forum. Today I have been sorting all my stuff and forgot I had this vintage kit unfortunately I can't upload pictures yet but it's a LMC jet series kit
Hawk mk11
48" wing span.
all fibre glass moulding are uncut it would seem everything is in the box . I would love to build it but due to my illness I am unsure any advice would be very welcome thankyou

Hi Tim
I've only just seen your post so sorry if my reply is no longer relevant.
You do not say whether you are an experienced builder or flyer but in my view, if you intend to build and fly this model you will need to be both! At 48" wingspan and powered by a 40-60 sized two stroke engine, and given its very streamilined design, it's going to fly very quickly and it's certainly not a model for a beginner to learn to fly with. There is some discussion on this kit here: LMC Hawk MkII
I see you're from Ledbury. I was born and raised in Shrewsbury but retired to France in 2015.
