Funny you should mention that because apart from aeros and a cross-channel check out I am thinking of having a go at the cub 😉 but probably not for another 4 months… so make the most of it now !

Ah, my Rearwin should be flying by then. The Cub is fun. I like the fact that when someone is messing around with ridiculously long finals and you are the only other aeroplane in the circuit, you can pull the power back and just stop while they mess around!

It is also fun to fly it without the stick. Get it trimmed right and in smooth air you can fly for ages just on the rudders.

Cool, I know they have been refurbishing the whole lot but haven’t been down there recently… my next session (Slingsby) is on Saturday and I am really getting a severe cockpit fever about it now.

Cheers,

I was in there on Monday and Tuesday. Had lunch on Tuesday. Nice lady in te kitchen and the atmos is great.
