Sorry I missed it this year. Looks like I missed a good one.

I'm glad it was moved back to the first weekend in August. Bobbie and I will be there this year.

Spruce Creek Aviation Community is an awesome sight to see and a great place for lunch, you might even bump into Captain Cub. Also check out Jack Brown's Seaplane base and go for a trip around the...
Hopefully we will see it at Bowman’s Ski Plane Fly in February 12th.

Seems like a light 11 is still tipping the scales right around 850lbs. With a 180lb Pilot and 150lb passenger that only leaves about 6.5 gallons of fuel to be legal.
Is there a gross weight...

It's always best to go with a short N number.
Such a great question Jim, and really get's you thinking.
I do not come from an aviation family background and my career path was picked for me at a young age as a third generation Ironworker. But...

Bowman Airfield's 36th annual fly in August 27th and 28th, 2022. (B10) Livermore Falls Maine.
I had the same problem with my Clipped wing J3. It was driving me crazy trying to figure out where the noise was coming from. It was the holes at the fork attachment points to the fuselage that was...
I few weeks ago I was asked by a good family friend if I could do a gender reveal from my cub. of course my very next call was to Scouter to get some great advise to make this a day the the expecting...

Most all of my time has been in a J3 with no mixture control so I really haven't had to think about it. Now my 0-200 powered PA11 has a mixture control. I have basically flown it around for the last...
Greg,
When are you going to put out a new series of Big Rocks and Long Props?
Larry.
Two 18 gallon tanks. 90% of the time I fill them 1/2 full, but it is nice to top them off when I plan longer trips. I will never win the lightest cub award but it serves my mission.

Its on a PA11. The muffler and stacks I believe have about 750 hrs on them. I pulled the Muffler last year to inspect and weld up a small crack. it is leaking exhaust right at the stack / muffler...
What is the best way to seal up the exhaust where the stacks make into the muffler? I am getting leak by on both sides that is leaving exhaust streaks down the side of my Cub.
Thanks in advance....
The best mod that I had done to my J3.

Hi Reid.
Thanks for the response on the floats. Just trying to learn all I can to make sure I end up with the best set up possible.
As far a Bowman STOL. It will be in October but we do not...
Douten. I just sent you a text message about your floats.

EDO 1650 on a PA11?
How’s the performance? Would I be able to get a field approval? I might have a lead on a nice set. Would these be worth pursuing or should I just keep looking for a set that...
I Have also had a bad experience with getting a loan through AOPA. When we talked with him he was pretty full of himself and told us right off how long he has been doing this and he knew everthing...
Flew up to Greenville to check out the status of Folsom's DC3 on amphibs. It hasn't flown in several years but they are making great progress getting it airworthy again. One could say that the Cub...
Jim,
I think I am in for August 15th. I will double check with the boss to make sure we do not have prior commitments, but right now that weekend sound available to me.
