Sure. I wasn't a military pilot either. In fact, I'm not much of a
civilian pilot either.

Oh I don't know. Anyone who can handle a J3 on a windy day in August must
have SOMETHING on the ball! :-)

Didnt a British Airways pilot once say that a Cub pilot can fly a
Corcorde, but
the reverse isnt neccessarily true.

I think so. I know I've learned a lot about flying in J3's, both flying them
and teaching others to fly them. I believe it's the only airplane I've ever
flown that was showing me a negative ground speed once or twice in fairly
high winds aloft. :-))))
I also enjoyed flying one all the way down the east coast to the Florida
Keys one summer; most of the flight with the two side panels open wide to
the world allowing me to holler down to people on boats waving as I went by
merrily on my way.
It's a wonderful airplane.
