Thanks Jerry.
Can't wait to get back into the plane. I have one big, huge question for everyone. Is there an official Valdez Tattoo??
Also, is that Clyd Ice any relation to Cecil Ice?? Dakotas?
I groove on these old hunting stories. My dad, Art Wikle raised our family by aerial hunting in the winter and crop-dusting in and around South Dakota. I remember (just kind of thinking back, eh?),...
I have been running the brush on Herculiner stuff for about 5 years now. I clean(acetone) the low spots and recoat every spring. I like the little grit in the tires. It helps to slow the airplane...
I know... A-lot.
Hi.
Haven't been keeping up with the gang lately. My computer decided to take a smoke break. In fact, so did my phone, and my back up computer. I have had catastrophic breakdowns with...
We have been running the Herculiner for years. It works awesome. The little chunks help stop the thing on ice, grass and roof tops. It is a little hard water skipping. I just throw some acetone on...
Hi. Can't get out till later today. If you guys need a base of Operations to get all the info together call me at 907-903-0757. I got the room. If you don't mind me asking If I can throw a few...
Ran across this a bunch and I think Sierra Bravo is correct. I forget the exact date but the reg did change in the last, say, 10 years. The old licenses were good until you got the time. Some guys...
I'm not sure she knew the exact time. Her husband told be and it amounted to a few careers. I know it was more than I had in a cub. Her handling of the aircraft put her in the "knew what she was...
Thanks. It was awesome. Oh, I did mean WW2 vs. the great war. Don't know what I was thinking. Anyhow, she had tons of time. I don't want to get too into her affairs but she had tons. Her...
Artic here. I have been working really hard to get the Av-gas station up and running. (get your cheap gas here) Anyhoo, it was nice to finally get a break and go fly with some students. Ken, the...
Do we have a thread where you can see what the avgas prices are around the state/world?
Good job of noticing that. It is easy to do. Narrow 40 foot wide runways with trees on both sides will do that to you. I landed at a strip the other day (oh and if you want to really make someone...
When I was more of a kid, I remember my Dads ag cubs and everyone elses cubs getting those cracks. A lot were from ski flying and landing in the fields and from corrosion/chemical that started in...
You can fly higher than 500 foot?
Before you put them on make sure the toe-in/out are correct. That tears them up pretty fast. Any pavement will kill em quick. Enjoy them, put money in the bushwheel jar. There are guys that go...
I'm still going to throw that airspace/ how to hot-rod your Cub around Alaska and not get into trouble class Tues. the 10th of July @ 6pm. next to the Colony Kitchen. If your interested stop on by....
Went up to the top where (kinda) the accident must have taken place. Good gravy is that a place. No wonder they never got anything out of there.
Anyhow, don't want to hijack a thread. I will...
O.k. I yacked with the Manager and we will throw a class together for Tuesday the 10th of July at 6pm. I'll do it at the school location which is right next to the Noisy Goose Restraunt in Palmer. ...
Good Day. That's what my Co-pilot says to me when I say, "Hello." She is an expert in the English Language. Me, not so much... I was going to be a pig farmer. How much do I need to know to...
Thats too bad. Hope they find the P!#@2. Geez.
Ok. Let me get this straight. So, it was a 124 that everyone knew about back in the day but the Air Force could not get the remains out? Did I get that they stopped trying from (understandably)...
I agree with the VSI approach. Most of the cub stuff is so different in that with additional parasite drag and messing with the wings you will get a different glide from bird to bird. It always...
