RE: Sterling Spitfire Kit
I do remember several of the Sterling Spits flying with Super Tigre .56s before I went into the AF. They were almost as popular as the DeBolt P-51. My CL version came out a bit heavy for my old Veco .35, plus since I was doing my building from about 3:00 to about 4:30 AM after getting home from 10 hour shifts on an auto assembly line, I goofed on the inverted engine mounting and put in a couple degrees of left thrust instead of right thrust. Even cuttiing a trim tab in the fin didn't really help with the line tension.
