Am more of an Boeing F4B-4 man myself. Navy thing, what can I say.  :D



When are you going to get your finger out and finish "OUR" airplane. I want to borrow it for a weekend.

Welcome back Hawk. :aok

lol, thanks storch!

This would be the 82% scale that I am building.
The one pictured is my friends, should test fly in a month.
Others and the full scales can be seen on my web page at: http://www.curtisshawkp6e.com
I am sure the "maggie" name will hang around for some time..I can deal with it.

Plans built, some parts pre-built, laser cut ribs and some steel parts.

Engine is the Chevy 383 Stroker, performance built, 253 hp at 3,000rpm, no-reduction box.

3000 rpm is the max without a gear reduction box. Cruise will be about 2650 or so.


...you mean like this one?




This one has the Sports Klasic prop that I want, however, they dont make it big enough for the Hawk!
