Did the DuckHawk VNX ever exist?

Did the VNX ever exist?

After some online research I find out following hints that it didn't:

There are very few picture of a DuckHawk, with registration number N4632P (DuckHawk V)
According to FAA 4 DuckHawks were registered, but no VNX http://registry.faa.gov/aircraftinquiry/AcftRef_Results.aspx?Mfrtxt=&Modeltxt=DUCKHAWK&PageNo=1
All Sailplanes disappeared from the website of Windward Performance in 2015.

If it didn't, it would be nice if someone could find out the specifications of the DuckHawk V. --Eio (talk) 07:34, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Good questions! The FAA registry now shows three Duckhawks, serial numbers 1, 2 and 3 were registered, plus one Duckhawk "E" serial number 1. So it looks like four were built, but that the VNX model was just "proposed" and never built. The specs are still found on Archive.org so I can switch them over to the "V" model as it was the most produced version. - Ahunt (talk) 12:10, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Done, see what you think. - Ahunt (talk) 12:23, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wow I did not expect to get it so fast!!! --Eio (talk) 12:34, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

, well the refs were all available, so no reason to leave the article out of date for the readers! Any further updates needed? - Ahunt (talk) 12:55, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
