I am guessing that since QQ (and Bob Trueworthy) have the exclusive rights to the Kimball Pitts 12, that Hangar 9 figures they have no competition for the bipe which they introduced at Nall.

But the YAK I think would be a good seller, and I dont think it would necessarily cut into their 260 business.

Just wishing and hoping.

But right now I would kill for one NIB

I have no idea what the exact relationship is between QQ, McConville, Hangar 9.

But I am assuming that any decision to produce the plane would have to be business driven from the Hangar 9 end, and that QQ would have to approve and share in the arrangement. I dont think the impetus would come from QQ. I also dont know how Wayne Ulery fits in.

I could be wrong.

But I would like to start the conversation, assuming it hasnt already been broached/dismissed/planned for/top secret etc etc

I think Chief has some QQ Yaks for sale right now, then you would not need to kill for one.

Hi Ira,

Wayne Ulery has retired. He has no relation with HH or H9! Quique works for HH. As far as I know making a decision on producing an airplane is not one person responsibility so there are chain of commands involve just like any other large business. I very much doubt that HH would produce QQ Yak as they are always after bringing the latest and greatest plus with having people like Quique, Mike and many others, that latest gets just better and better!

I think you should move on and my personal recommendation for you to replace your G3 is H9 Extra 260. It is an outstanding flying airplane, you won't be disappointed plus you have the support and customer service of HorizonHobby behind your back in case you need it!

Regards,
Reza

I also would suggest that you change the title of this thread and not mention Mike's name. I wouldn't personally like to be put on spot on something like this. Just a suggestion and I hope you don't take any other way.

Default re: H9 new product suggestions/request

Let's see if we can get all the players and their numbers in the correct position on the field:

There was an announcement here on Flying Giants a while back. (Yeah, everybody was belly-aching because it took so long to get the "big announcement" out to all if us.) QQ sold off all his stuff to Chief Aircraft and ceased his QQ Aircraft business. Chief is now selling gazillions of the really neat planes and stuff QQ Aircraft WAS selling.

QQ had a really nice lady by the name of Molly that answered phones and did all the really hard stuff and I haven't heard anymore on what she is doing. (She probably needed a higher profile agent but that's a whole 'nuther story.)

According to the press release and Wayne Ulery's high profile agent, (Probably the same guy that handles all the big name football stars!) Wayne was wanting and deserving to retire and spend time with his family. And so he did....... He now wakes up every day and does nothing but fun stuff.

And now for the main man..... QQ went to the big city and signed a contract with Horizon to be a part of their design and flight team.

Joining All-Pro Design-meister, Mr. Mike McConnville, this will probably be the duo of the century. (Mike needs no agent...... He is his own agent. He also sits on the Supreme Court part time for the really tough cases.)

We are certain to see really cool stuff out of Horizon because of this dynamic duo. (If only their agents can work out the details)

Sooooooooooo If some of you are wondering why on earth there would be a connection between Mike and QQ and YAK parts.......... There ya have it.

It is a rumor and only a rumor.......... A brand new, un-opened, pristine GEN III YAK used to be sitting on the floor in the hallway before Craven tripped over it and smashed it to pieces. Al Gore has offered the North Koreans Craven in exchange for the two American reporters being held captive on spy charges because of the severe damage to the YAK. I got all this info from the National Enquirer who ALWAYS double-checks their sources. Yeah.... That's the ticket.

I'm sure we can look forward to great things from both Quique and Mike in the near future, but we're just gonna have to stand by for a while as Quique just got to work at Horizon and things aren't going to happen overnight. I can see some cool things come out of this.

I dont think Mike would be offended.

I'm just trying to increase H9's profit.

Usually businesses like positive suggestions from customers (unless its GFY)
