wrote: Flying a Cub in a New Hampshire winter sounds, well, painful! Not really. For openers, after a couple of bad experiences with engines cutting out (we were on mogas at the time, though Cub Builders List will fight to the death against any suggestion that fuel was the cause) we are forbidden to fly the Cubs when the temp is below 20F. A roll of duct tape, fleece-lined jeans, and a lot of polyster keeps it quite comfortable in the back seat. I actually started flight training in January ![]() The upside is the beauty of the countryside, and the chance to land at Alton Bay, which I understand is the nation's only seaplane base that is a recognized ice runway in the winter. all the best -- Dan Ford email: (put Cubdriver in subject line) Warbird's Forum www.warbirdforum.com Piper Cub Forum www.pipercubforum.com the blog www.danford.net |
