Very nice. What's the cruise speed 75% power? Definitely a workhorse but dang I can see the fuel burn from here. Lol. It's just absurd we've gotten to the point in aviation where an engine cost twice as much as the plane.

Great numbers! you are just confirming the Bearhawk as the best all round aircraft - speed/STOL/quality of materials/ease of flying

About time Virgil.......been waiting - lol

I love these types of videos showing real performance Can you please do one at gross weight???

Amazing Job!! Bearhawks really are the best!

Load it to the gills..and let's see some numbers...fantastic aircraft by the way. Greetings from Iceland

I didn’t realize a five could take a < 300hp engine. Hoping to place an order in about a year . Need to renovate the shop first

Engine?

Thank you for the context around how you are flying the aircraft. Great video, well put together. Really appreciate what you all are doing with Bearhawk!

I am looking at this plane. Looking at options to install a P&W turbo-prop.

Are you offering cabane V suspension on all the kits?

Nice , Best plane on the market !

A vid like this for each of the models would be sweet!

Beyond amazing!!! I can’t wait for my Companion to get in the air

Looks great!!

Not a very accurate video. You rely on too much rumor and need to to your research in greater detail. Further. I’d hardly call half of those large aircraft. You have two completely different classes of aircraft and lumping them all into one. A tip, KNOTS are the speed to use for airplanes

Now thats a fun morning

Nice 👍👍👍👍👍

Brilliant!

Where do I purchase BearHawk merch ?

I have been thinking about a Bearhawk for a year now. Show me more!

Isn’t the Bear Hawk an experimental? Can you use that for commercial purposes in Niger?

Hmmm, how did we know this would end with a 350 HP airplane …..built up New ! 👍

Almost matches my requirements PERFECTLY! Nice video. Thank you sir.

nice video thanks for the breakdown ! my dad has built a couple of the scratch build 4 place, i am really wanting to build one now as well. your picture and description of africa flying brings back memories of flying around north sudan etc. have you been stuck in a haboob yet ? you did miss the best stol airplane however the DHC-7 hahah we used to go into some really small strips with those at flap 45 you just kind of hang by the harness.

merci

Should call the bear hawk the muskrat when it has floats. It reminds me of the mighty dehaviland beaver. It looks like a little beaver. The muskrat would be a great name if it has floats on it.

How many times will he say ummm ahh

I’d love to own one of those planes, or any plane for that matter.

Nice flying!

Will this be available for kits?

Looking good. Is the plan to get this more to an assembly process vs struggling to figure out whats needed where

What is that with the stretcher door?

Respect bro

This is uncanny . Was also flying my Maule, VFR on top , a few months ago- eating a PB &J But for some reason i forgot to move the mic on the headset, and got a big glob of peanut butter on the mic fabric . Anyhow, awesome plane , youve checked all the boxes - probably the most versatile build ive seen . Cool to see that youre taking the bearhawk brand forward - reminds me of the guys who bought helio recently

There should be laws against making a landing look so effortless.

REALLY enjoyed your edit. Very entertaining but also just what I needed as I'm selling my Champ and looking for either 180, 182, or Bearhawk. Thanks

What about a bushliner (cyclone)

Looks goods!

Excellent information. How long did it take to build?

GOD bless you and your family and your ministry in Niger.

Very useful video. Never understood a "bush plane" that couldn't accommodate camping gear.

Hey Virgil, Great video. I’m about to put the stolspeed VG’s on my Skyranger and your testing gave me a good framework to follow. Also, you ministry content offer would be awesome. I’d love to see it. Wondering if you bought Jim Hocking’s business. I was on a board for the development of a clinic in western Kenya and had several discussions with Jim about getting clean water to the people in Busia western Kenya.

Let us know how it goes!

Wished I could've met you there! Was only able to make it by your booth one time and missed you

Thanks Virgil for going into details!

with your interest, knowledge and skills with composites, maybe we will see lighter and stronger Bearhawk aircraft

5:17 pizz on your music

it is cool that Irwin appreciates the advantages of CF and has become an expert. Hopefully he will incorporate these to the kits
