This man has had so much tragedy in his life and yet he keeps going. One heck of a pilot.

Man’s grandfather, father, and wife died in plane accidents. You ain’t lying, but yet he jumps back into that seat and keeps going.

Kyle is a real class act. I've had the opportunity to work and fly with him. He's a great pilot and a great friend.

73A looks better than when I had to fly it across country. The brakes even work.:)

I’m a favorite of the Piper Super Cub I’ve ever flown in and there is no other Tailwheel aircraft like it besides the L-19 Bird dog

I would be a little modest with the 0360. The Cub is a very different aeroplane to fly on the extreme numbers with that kinda H.P. Good Luck. The Cub also high speesd stall with that kinda power.Too !!!!!!!!
@stationmanager93252 жыл бұрын
Great comment.Yes the Cub does high speed stalls. It's most interesting that there are so many Cub pilots that don't know that. As a cropduster one had to be very careful with fully developed stalls. That Clark Y airfoil I do believe Frankstine invented it!!!
