Hi there - can anyone help me? After a set of plans for Andy Conways BAE Hawk - can you please point me in the right direction? Regards Dave Lowe

Ps would also be interested in any second hand PSS airframes - thanks

Andy still sells the plan and canopies for both versions. I bought a set earlier this year for about £15.

Thanks very much for taking time to reply - actually got Andys e mail address via another source yesterday and have since ordered the plan and canopy set.
Wasnt aware that he actually offered pink foam wings also - may be a good alternative - may well be in touch in the new year and take you up on the offer on advice - thanks again Dave Lowe

Hi Dave. My set of plans had no info on building wings. In fact there was a comment about not botherring with built up wings anymore, so it may be worth checking with Andy that he has included that detail.
Not sure what your experience is with building from plans. I don't have a lot, so made a few mistakes on the way that needed correcting.

Well it flies, phewww!!
It was quite light and the many struggled with a lack of lift, but the Hawk managed to stay up for a while.

I built mine with a scale wing planform and a built up wing. It came out very light indeed, flies well, and looks better in my opinion with the scale wing.
