Thanks for taking a look at my Bearhawk project! I have plans number 708 and am building kind of a hybrid. I have a set of quick build wings from AviPro and am scratch building the rest. The award-winning aircraft in the picture above is a Bearhawk scratch-built by Pat Fagan of California. He made a trip to Alaska with his wife in 2004. Pat, along with the world-famous Bob Romanko (another Bearhawk builder from Homer, Alaska) took the time to fly to Kenai so I could have a look at his airplane. This is the very first time I saw a Bearhawk in person AND got a chance to fly it! It was an experience I won't forget and am grateful for the chance to fly this immaculate plane. Thanks Pat!

Stop by and look at my progress from time to time...
