...OK it's not a Cub, but this is a great story. Clarence "Stearnie" Stearns flew a B-17 in WWII, got shot down and was a POW. In his late 80's he decided he wanted to build a plane...so he did...a Bushcaddy. I saw the announcemenmt of the completion in one of our aviation mags and started digging for more info. The inetrnet and his daughter Jana provided the rest. I thought his story deserved his own page on my website. Check him out:
