Nice way to do it. I avoided that road when there, and found similar roads for my ride. Keep the shiny side up.

Why do pilots always choose to sit in the rear seat in these types of planes?

I'm not a pilot. So, I don't know these things but I have to ask... Why do guys who fly these taildraggers with the tandem seats, always fly from the rear seat? Wouldn't it be better to fly from the front seat where visibility would be improved?

Having grown up in Marion, NC, my first airplane flight, age 12, was from Shiflet Field, name for Bill Shiflet whose daughter taught Civics, Marion High School. In over 7 decades, having recently visited Shiflet Field, sad to say, very few changes have occurred relative to other airports in the area.

Those brakes. ;) Great vid.

Yet another useless video of no times posted. No point in making drag racing videos when no times posted.

Nice

My grandfather flew one of these in 1938-39. Then, in mid September, 1939, his logbook suddenly went blank. Apparently, Herr Adolph's adventure into Poland cause the US Federal government to severely restrict aviation fuel at that point.

coolest plane out there. great vid 👍🏻!

I thought the VFR Corridor required lights, without an electrical are you exempt? I would be nervous with so much traffic, the good news is that you are yellow and slow, easy to see

Just bought a Styker a month ago. Thanks for posting this!

This is so cool!!!! 😀😀😀

What year is your 1100XX and do you have any overheating issues?

Excellent film footage.

Absolutely FANTASTIC, Tennessee is underrated. I will make sure to make a trip up there. We are in FL. Thanks for this stunning video!! GREAT!!

Sorry the ignorance, what State is this filmed in? Gorgeous. Wanna ride my Chief Vintage there.

👍👍👍👍👍

I call this piloting a wing and not a guided motor. It's much more fun.

I love my J-3! 23years Gary

So glad the sixer was built

From flippin it's a funny town

My first job at age 14 in 19xx was as a lineboy where my family had been based well before I entered the picture. We had a lot of Cub and Champs on the line as primary trainers. This is very similar to how I started them when nobody is around with the one exception, I straddled the right main and hold the door post, but I am also well over 6 ft tall. I could nearly reach the throttle and the blade at the same time by the time I was full grown. On weekends at 6:30a when you have to start getting rentals out for 8a lessons, there isn't another soul around to lend a prop. Over the years I grew physically and learned how to prop radials, on up to bigger Jakes with 2B-20's, a lot of W670s with Curtis Reed props. Anyone that would think of touching a flat-6 or a three bladed prop needs their head checked. Otherwise, it can be done very safely for a lifetime. Simply never lose respect.

what was the time???????

That’s my cousin there

So far the best Indian ride video. Felt like I was on that ride. Thank you. I loved it. The absence of BGM made it more beautiful. My ride of choice would be the Springfield.

super nice. i learned in a j-3 back in the seventies. nice original interior and the plexiglas looks like new. full tank of fuel = lots of fun had to wiggle the key on mine too

Super !

Please explain why this is the "last landing." Is the airport shutdown? Last landing for the Cub before being stored for the winter? What?

Excellent film footage and sound.

I have a Stryker. It's scary fast. That comes in handy when I enter the freeway.

Why the back seat?

Why are you flying with that front windscreen dirty blocked???????????

That is a nice bike

Just curious, why are you in the back seat?

Great! I love this kind of stuff!

RESTORING A 1940 J-3 I FLY IT EVERY NIGHT BEFOR I FALL TO SLEEP. IM NOT A TAIL WHEEL PILOT. SHOULD BE INTRUSTING.

Boy, what a clean Cub. That is what real flying is all about. Door down, soaking in all the flavorful aroma's in the air and touching down on a beautiful freshly mowed grass strip. It don't get any better that that. Yes sir!!!!!

wow this is so rare. this guy should do more videos and probably talk in them.

Thanks for taking me back. I learned in a J3 but haven't flown one in years. There is flying and then there is transportation and with all the idiosyncrasies and throwbacks of the Cub there is never any doubt as to which you are up to.

I’ve lived about 5 min from that airport not once hav I ever saw a plane on that runway I always miss it

isubscribe#154 ok

Last week was sweet while a couple weeks ago and they had 12 inches of snow so I skied for three days up there with fresh powder and it was the best March is the best time to go to the middle of March no ice all snow

I accidentally went down the Switchback all I wanted to do was go up to the lower flying mile I didn't want to go all the way up that high so I had to put my tips in scared the hell out of me you got some balls kickass Mountain I went last week

Fantastic!

I flew in a real "Cub" back on my grandfather's farm located in Iowa. We landed in a farm field. Great memory!

Both great bikes. Sunny day. Seems like a blast!

Love your videos. Followed you from Vimeo. You gotta have fat tires!

No screaming blonde on a first seat? I'm disapointed ;)

strip needs to be a mile then watch the bird gobble up the yammie lol

Hello, what speed keep in the final?
