Crash, Jr.

Ah you are a man of good taste. Nothing beats gas station musubi before riding snowmachines.

You can survive on no food but it's not nearly as much fun as having a full belly. Besides, the Alaska state regs require you to carry 7 days of food...

Airframes and Atlee both sell weld in seat belt tabs if that's what you want

Depends on the part numbers of the wheels and brakes but generally, no I don't know that there's an STC for those brakes. Only STC's for 6" wheels...

Sorry to harsh your vibe man. I'm not saying it's a bad plane just don't keep trying to sell the idea that another cub with slats and double slotted...

It already has been copied...by the Norden. SQ's did it a long time ago, Just Aircraft Super STOL after that, the Helio very long ago.... The only...

THANK YOU... It's not innovation it's just the flavor of the week. They did this with the Shock Cub in 2016 when storch gear and big shocks were...

Up here Finishmaster brings in 55 gallon drums of "the good stuff" and sells it to shops. As far as I know you can't buy the good paint stripper off...

Trim could go either way. If you're already in there and have the money to drop on the STC and parts, the PA-18 trim is nice to have. I had problems...

I've never regretted landing taking a leak and stretching my legs in the middle of a long flight but okay I'll bite. A funnel with a length of...

Bill Rusk said it best with the 90% rule: "Build For 90%" or the "90% Rule". "Take an honest look at your expected flying, (past performance is...

All good questions. That was my apprehension was the cost to replace the 18 gallon tank. Since the 12 gallon tanks sit between ribs rather than on...

I think dual 12 gallon tanks is a good mod to add in just for future resale and the potential that you can do XC flights.

I've only made one plane purchase (so far) and that was with a cashier's check. A lot easier than counting out bills and dealing with pulling five...

Couldn't agree more. I had problems with single pulley trim but a simple change of the trim pulleys took care of that. Less weight, less complexity....

It's too bad Atlee's STC SA459AL is only applicable to the J3 and not the PA-11. That would provide a full PA-18 stock size baggage area and be the...

Agreed on most of that. The PA-18 elevator system doesn't add any weight and the baggage is absolutely worth it. The PA-18 trim system is a...

I'd recommend even less. The Atlee floor seat belt tabs are great for crashing but not great for day to day livability. Passengers tend to step on...

There's a really nice weight and balance spreadsheet available from the J3 cub forum. I'll put a link to a google drive copy of it. ...

The Airframes fuselage STC includes PA-18-105 models and those fuselages include the additional structure required to meet the requirements of the...
