Laser cut Comet kits? That does sound interesting. One can only hope they are using better (much) wood!
Thanks for the tip. I will certainly check it out. How about you? Anything interesting to report? I'm all ears!
Here's the Comet Taylorcraft. It is a model of the real one I had. The wood was excellent. A very nice kit for the money. Weighs 15 oz. and flies like a dream and very slow. I made the mistake of covering it with tissue which is too delicate. It's a little beat up with hanger rash . Yours looks real good.
