The Delta Hawk has been VERY slow to come to the market, yet I have a
vague memory of the first samples being very close to release.
Anyone know the details, or of any flying apart from factory test/demo
planes?
TIA,


I have NEVER seen a Delta Hawk in any other plane but the factory Demo
canard. This motor program is as close to vaporware as on can get.

Just my opinion........


Thanks for sharing your opinion - obviously my info was incorrect. As
for "vaporware", I always believed this discipline's grandmaster is
Germany's Zoche diesel engine?

Rgds,


Zoche would have my vote, too! He has NEVER had one of his engines flown
in the 30 years that I have been aware of it.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is! (Like Zoche's engine)

Moller's the grandaddy of them all. Even takes deposits on vaporware.
