Default RE: Scared Of Retracts

A "decent" set of retracts doesn't necessarily mean a $250 pair, I consider Robart to be decent (although I'm sure some will disagree) and I paid £70 for my 609HD's 3 years ago and they have never let me down, even after being ripped out of the wing twice when I was still learning the nuances of landing a warbird. If we're talking Corsairs, I have a set of Robart 615's in my Flair (GSP) Corsair, which cost me $130 in the States, which I think is a good deal. Sure you can pay twice that on Sierras and the like if you want, but I for one can't justify that and will stick with my Robarts which continue to give me the utmost reliability.

If you need to spend $250 on retracts for a .60 size bird you're being well and truly ripped off my friend.
