Default Are kits really dying???

To each their own, I certainly yawn when I see another warbird making YASRFBAVR (Yet Another Strafing Run Followed By A Victory Roll).

I routinely test fly warbirds for many friends and, other than speed, find them generally boring, they don't tumble well, won't sideslip very well, snap too easily and are generally unable to perform even simple aerobatics like a knife edge loop.

You may think biplanes/triplanes are boring but, try flying one some time.... you have to use both sticks and be very quick about it (especially on landing and T.O.).
