Yup
I was in the Brodak booth at the Toledo Show yesteday, they brought a couple Corsairs and sold out of what they brought yesterday.  I'm sure they have some on hand back in Carmicheals.

They had the new Bearcat kit too.

Gotta love those Pat Johnston designs. I flew the prototype Corsair profile. It was interesting, that's certain.

Wayne,

I think it needed flaps. Great rounds but didn't turn corners well. Of course, it was brand new then and Pat was still trimming it so that could have had something to do with it.

I did notice it comes with a 3" Bell Crank, it also gives instructions on making a fiberglass cowl although a balsa version is what you are supplied parts for.
