Default What's up with the Sparrowhawk?

Not heard anything lately about the Sparrowhawk. I did hear a rumor
that their chief assembler quit, and there are other bits floating
around that pique the interest.

It's sad if they do/did go "out of business" It was exciting to see
someone with balls finally get a sailplane company started here in the
"good 'ole USA".........hmmm.......hopefully that isn't why they went
out of business.
