Bear in mind, my personal design goals is largely built around what I try to with my current cub.
-I want to make it Jim Cranes and back in one day, or Doug Turnbull’s, or Bowman, etc etc etc......
I would love an -8. It would be a freaking fantastic second airplane. Just not the only airplane. Even John Fleurent doesn’t fly his -8 with a group of us, unless he just shows up direct. :)
My...
Just to clarify the speed point, the 180 patrol on bushwheels is still far faster than a cub. Conservative speeds of 125. I’ve pulled a lot of data to make sure of these, and some of them are 130+. ...
As Dave mentioned the Patrol will be heavier unless you build it like Bob did or Bill Rusk. And yes they are designed for min 2000# gross. Two of the northeast Patrols will be Amphibs - so we...
I’d love an EX2, it much better fits my desired mission legs than my 85-90 mph cub, but just not as much as a Patrol does. Along with being out of my price range.
So as always it’s all about your...
hahahah! The same guys that Fleurent, Guhr, Symon, Mathers, Crane, Keneston, and the rest of the non-pa-18 guys fly with of course. :)
Interesting results chart from NZ the other day. Jon Battson (sp?) does know his airplane well, but that said he bested some supercubs in lighter classes. I believe he has a 4 place bearhawk, so in...
Well, we are on a SuperCub site. IT has history. WE have history. And of course, it's a proven machine with mods on every side.
That said, I'll batter up for a minute and say that the Patrol...
John I texted you but good chance we’ve got one.

There’s a builder ready to build out two 60x60 spots at our state owned airport. While he has long-standing relationship with the lumber yard, his numbers still show it cheaper per foot to build...
Very good Brand.

With a little gearing and air pressure certain unicycle opportunities may exist. (Ground Drag induced at normal pressures tend to overcome a rider)

Ha! The drive back to the airplane didn’t allow for that.

I save my most embarrassing moments for crowds of peers. Amazed and lucky I didn’t wrap that cowl cover up in the prop. Who knew my cowl wasn’t black?
Quite a WTF moment.

Leaving the "Twitchell Lake Slushie" video.
Watch the skis. Overflow is everywhere this year.

I'd be pleased with a plain ol ascender...

Long gone from the news. The Ascender was built, two place side by side single engine, and just as awesome, but had an incident in an Alaskan lake. Recovered but I’ve heard no news since sadly. ...
Yup.
I was impressed until I worked on one. And then another. And another. And now I really dislike them.
(Just to clarify, the mail truck reference is in relation to the Grumman brand, which...
It’s another fad for the GA geek crowd. Just installed one of these in a Grumman Tiger. No idea how well it works, but good place for it, in a plastic mail truck.

Jay you are correct, all angles, field of views,etc is all done in edit. (Literally everything)
So the advantage is also the curse. As you see in the first video above I had no real idea what I...
Is it still available? Know a kid looking.

Ps - there is way better footage out there but if you’re curious here’s the first footage I took with it, and the second link is footage of coming back from Phoenix last weekend. All video footage...
