The Corby CJ-1 Starlet is a single seat, amateur-built aeroplane designed in the 1960s by Australian aeronautical engineer John Corby.[1][2]
The CJ-1 Starlet's structure is primarily wood and finished with fabric. A variety of engine types have been used, including 50 to 80 hp (37 to 60 kW) Volkswagen air-cooled engines, the 80 hp (60 kW) Rotax 912UL and the 85 hp (63 kW) Jabiru 2200.[1][2]
The aircraft is built from plans, although some parts are available as well.[2] Additionally Aircraft Spruce & Specialty offer materials kits for the design.[3]
