Has anyone had any experience with the Sterling Spitfire. I expect that
like most Sterling kits, it is a builders kit (ie LOTSA wood). But
does it fly well. They claim a 64" wing span, and requirement of a
.35 to .60 engine. How about a 48 Surpass? Good enough? How scale is it? Anyway
Omni models is having a close out sale and are offering the 
kit for $49.99. Though I am up to my eyeballs in building projects
(a Flair Magnatillia, a Flair Pupeteer, a Flair SE5a and a scratch
build Fokker D-VIII) the price makes it an interesting proposition.

Thanks in advance!

Doug
