Default RE: Corby Starlet

Finally got around to that photo. Have ~25 flights on her, real sweet flyer, light and quick. Baffled the cowl, put fueler in carb inlet, remote glow. Still working the idle down on the new Saito 72 so landings are a little hot with 13x6 prop. Cowl & wheel pants didn't hold yellow color too well (UV?), but the horns & clevises are just fine. Had to reinforce the landing gear mount, and the tires are wearing out pretty quickly (that's a bit odd). But all-in-all a very pretty plane that flies well and gets lots of compliments.
