 |  Re: Bill Hempel 100cc Yak-55M?????
I love the plane, love the pocket hinging and extreme throws. I look forward to seeing this project follow through. The 55M or a Votec 322 would be great designs to hit the market with. This will allow Bill to step out of the market saturated extra/yak/edge world. I am excited to see this follows through. Take Care, Coolhand |

This may sound silly because I am not up to date on YAK designs of the model 55 but the OMP Yak does not have the lines of the proposed Hemple YAK not the Krill YAK... like I said, not a YAK expert but I don't think that there is a comparison on two different aircraft designs. Please don't get me wrong if bulldog9 is an OMP rep. because I like the plane but was intrigued by the lines on this particular aircraft. Coolhand |

I like the lines of the Hemple Yak. Bodywerks is right when he says that the 44% flys awesome. I would imagine Bill will have another winner on his hands.

You guys are going to make me go out and spend more money sooner than I had planned aren't you?

I love the looks of this plane (Y-55M). I HATE the looks of the Yak-55SP! It just doesnt look right. Kudos to bill for developing a plane I can finally get into (figuratively). I love the giants but transport and storage limitations prevent those. I'll be looking for another 100cc plane when I get tired of putting my Ultimate together at the field and this one certainly looks to be in the running. CB
