Husky at a super cub party

[N85HY]

Never been the only husky at a super cub party but I have been the only husky at a husky party. Just saying....

Former Super Cub owner, and a current Husky owner this is spot on. Thanks for the laugh. Husky party + Boulevard Wheat. SJ will probably recognize it.

Hey, bring a smile, they are great planes. Anything is better than driving in a Chevy Vega

 

[Cub junkie]

Huskies attract the right people.

 

[N85HY]

Yep. Love my plane. No regrets. Just seems that the husky group is a bit more independent and doesn't really get together as a group much?

 

[N85HY]

Whoa. I've never had that happen ��

I party with plenty of husky owners. Swing by my hangar sometime. Cold beer in the fridge.

Those Husky's look familiar!! We had some good Husky parties in AK this year.

Some people just wouldn't know class if it was stuck to the bottom of their shoe...from a husky...

How about a Husky at a helicopter party?

They show up around here more often than not...

Although I knew one geologist that owned one and he was a good guy, most are flown by Goverment types in AK.
No one wants to be associated with that crowd...

Lucky to have both. Husky shot at Burwash Landing, YT on the flight south this fall.

Really? All the Husky owners/pilots in Alaska I know are non government types. About 7 or 8 off the top of my head. Not that Im a government type, but what is wrong with being associated with "government types"? School teachers, police, fire fighters, highway maintenance crews, military, what is wrong with these types?

Husky out number Super Cubs around here. Actually work a little better than a cub around here cause everything is so far away and the density altitude doesn't bother them as much.

Trees don't bother them as much either.

Is this one a cross dresser?

 

[Cub junkie]

I wonder how Aviat decides on the N numbers on the airplanes built for the open market. I think they throw darts at a board with letters and numbers on it. They seem to be all over the place with N numbers. I like seeing an old PA18 with its original number, C180's too. Never been a fan of vanity numbers.

Many of those tail numbers are chosen by dealers, others are just some contraction of “Husky”, as in HU or HY.

Some dealers and factory use the WY, for Wyoming on their N numbers.

Yes, that I can figure out but still think its kind of wonky.

That was you in the top picture too Gary. 8)

Gary is my brother. Hotel Yankee on here. His tail number is 399HY. Mine is 85HY. We live about 10 miles apart. Both have grass strips at home. He has all black stripes, I have the red stripe. Thinking the top pic is Gary but third one is definitely me. I remember that cub next to me. Nice cub.

 

[N85HY]

My tail number is the last digits of serial number plus HY for "husky" I believe.
