Default RE: Covering

Thanks for the advice bob. It sounds like the main concerns that you have are pretty much like flying a real tail-dragger, but I'm sure that things happen a lot faster on something this small, so I will be careful. I think, however, that I will still do the full wing. I am most definitely going to do floats, and I am planning on making a set of skiis out of some thick sheet aluminum; however, I am not sure what the dimensions should be. I don't know for sure if the real cub ever had skiis, whether or not I could get access to a pair to measure them if they exist, or if a scale size would even support the plane on snow, so that one will take some research.
