FYI

You could always use racing slicks. There are several Cubs in Alaska with them. I know two very experienced Cub pilots that will tell you that there isn't a better tire for off field work than a...

I'm not sure what's keeping Toyota out of the 3/4 ton market, but when or if they decide to jump in - the big 3 out of Detroit will certainly have to rethink things. I've owned Ford, Chevy and...

I also own a set of CC Ribs. Bought them last year after talking to Jim at the Anchorage show. Building up the wings as we speak. Do not own Carbon Cub.

How many hours do you have? When were the bulk of those hours collected; 10 years ago, 5 years, 2 years ago??How many hours a week are you flying now?

Just curious - RD

Wow! That's some surprising news that comes out of left field! Had he been sick - dealing with some kind of illness? Condolences to family and friends. Sad news indeed!

Maybe I'm the strange one here, but I think it's funny/strange that anyone would be concerned about whether or not these things were STC'd. Seems hard to believe that with all CC has going on, that...

I think he'll sell some fuel. I'm always in that neck of the woods wishing I had 10-15 more gallons. Good for him - I hope he does well!

Thread bump; why wouldn't Eldridge shut his engine down when his prop came apart?

Is that stuff real or just some creative editing? First impression is to say,"NO Way"! But if you would have told me 10 years ago that some crazy kid from California would be doing double back...

BR; Are your Keller flaps on your 13 rib Cub standard length flaps? Extended to the fuselage? I'm assuming the flaps (keller) on your SQ2 have been lengthened as well as your ailerons??? I know...

That's all I've ever used - works perfect.

A few scuffs?? Really - only a few scuffs? I think they're ruined. You better send them to me so I can dispose them in an environmentally correct way. There is no charge for this service, but you...

It's been really slow, but things will start to move along fairly quickly now. Should be in the air late winter - early spring. Sorry about your friend Ron.

Airframes Alaska now sells / owns this ski brake system. Quality stuff!

ATTENTION ALL NEWBIE PILOTS / PLANE BUYERS: Re-read Tango's above post. Print it off and tape it to your computer. Memorize it if you have to, because truer words have never been spoken. When I...

Own three pairs myself. Bombproof, comfortable and wouldn't consider anything else for sheep hunting. With gaitors, I've crossed calf deep water and feet stay dry. It's pretty hard to beat an...

Well said Stewart. I'm with you 100% on that one! I don't want to burn up; certainly don't want to carry those scars and feel desperately sad for the people who do - BUT, I'm wet and cold a lot...

It's actually pretty cool. I've flown by it dozens of times and it makes me chuckle every time I see it. Only in Alaska!!!

[QUOTE=cubflier;532470]Roger,

Thanks. It would be great to have you along. Picking up on some past posts it looks like you have some healing to do but anytime you are ready just give a shout. ...

Jerry,

It's good to see you still "livin the dream"! Outstanding photo! Its been 25 years since I last had on a pair of skis. Wow - where does the time go? I'm inspired! Next year, I'm going...

It's been 5 weeks and the Doc tells me it's healing faster than normal - whatever that means; it still aches but it's getting stronger. Thanks for asking!

I haven't bought 200 gallons from John since early fall. I guess I'm a little surprised it's only 5.32. I think I'm paying well over $4.00 for diesel. Even at $5.32 I still think when it comes to...
