Steve, great shots!

I need the one on how to get in if your tall without whacking your head and knees.

I see the lad can read. He did not step on the strut :lol:

Good thing most of the Cubs around here don't have fabric on the gear.

 

[CraigH]

Wow!

You'd better hope he doesn't see you reaching for the master, mags and starter. Then you'll be in REAL trouble!

 

[CaptFox]

Steve,

You'd better hide the keys for that bird real quick, If not you might find the little fella taking it out for a spin sooner than you know....

David. :lol:

If that is the L4 of Steve's that I flew, the lad will need to start taking steroids to be able to haul back on the stick... since I could barely do it.

Finally some help for my problem... I'll try this method as soon as I get off work.

Steve are you talking about my L18C with the non-balanced elevators? That is a 90 hp PA11 that Lee has figured out how to get into.

Good one Steve,

Makes this new Grampa smile.

I thought the aileron cables needed to be a little tighter than that!? At least he knows which seat to get into!

It's in for strut replacement. Left gear is a temporary welded up out of wrecks till the good one is painted.

Steve,
He obviously has good taste in aircraft.

[Steve Pierce]

You got that right. Struts are ready to go on Monday. Just finished welding the gear. Prime and paint Monday and Tue. If ya'll haven't figured it out this is Bryan's PA11. :lol:

 

[Lawn Dart]

Okay, I gotta concede on this one. Lee is a mile ahead of my Jill in this area.

Great pics Steve!

You're a lucky man, Steve. I said it before and I'll say it again: Money might be the key to happiness, but happiness doesn't have a lock. Great pics.

That *is* an inspiring sight for this (fairly) new grandpa, too.

My oldest grandson turns 4 next month. His other grandpa is also a flyer, and plans to take him up in the Citabria (technically, it's an Explorer but...) this year. Thus far, he's just sat in them making airplane sounds. Hey, I do the same thing!

Getting the old photo albums back allowed me to fix this old thread.

Is that Tom Ford when he first started working for you?

[Farmboy]

I'm at the point were I'm ready to create a "How to get in a cub if you're fat" video. Trouble is I have to figure out how to get in first.

 

[krines]

I keep a collection of videos where I tell people how to get in and instruct them to follow directions exactly and then video the results, it is quite funny

I can't believe you just called Laura a monkey, on Valentine's Day

I called her that three years ago when I made that video...
