How do you guys like the full wing in regards to transporting this bird? I'm trying to decide between the bae hawk, the new not enough info fms f16, or the F7f Tigercat. Leaning towards the hawk for visibility reasons and the good flight characteristics people are reporting. Thanks in advance for your input!

Excellent flying plane & Grass ops.. Certainly better than the other two especially it's got Trailing links all round..I have a van so no issue with transporting whole.. It's not that large you can't transport whole in a car..

I only have a small car and it fits in whole, so there's no reason to take the wing off at all for me.
I'd like some more info on the FMS F-16 though

Yes no problem. I've got renault scenic and with 3-4 models does fit nicely.
Ps.
Folded 2 back seats down as you can see. Also 2 models disassembled on the floor behind front seats but not visible here :-)

No way it's ugly.. Had a look at the F8 Crusader.. Looks like a Whale scooping up Krill with its mouth wide open..
