Yeah, so I never knew something like that was possible. Looks like about 50' for landing and 75' for takeoff. Maybe less. I'm impressed. Makes me want to do it too!
@@AKCub907 Wow, I can see why you love them. It's so amazing. My thought is that because you can get the speed down for landing, it seems, then injuries are much less pronounced in the event of a mishap. Is this true for taking off? It seems speeds for take off are also very slow, by comparison.
@@gregb3457 Yes it true, 👍 Old quote from test pilot Max Stanley... "The Piper Cub is the safest airplane in the world; its just barely fast enough to kill you." 😜
Impressive landings!
Hey, Thanks 👍
Never get tired of the view!!

Awesome
very good.
Thanks‼
I hope you're coming to Skwetna!
Scheduled to land in PANC at 4 am same morning. But still might attend. 😴
Landing shorter than takeoff requires some skills in a Cub like that!
Thanks for the kind words, Think I could use more HP.
Never get tired of the view!!
