Default RE: Not your typical 2nd plane post...

I might just have to do a cub...and build it...it seems like an easy (and interesting) build...

I seen a decathalon last weekend (see attachment...i got a good shot if it as it touched down...)

It does float pretty well...i have a video of it deadsticked....it wasnt as slow as a trainer...but that was partially because of where he was at when the motor cut out...he had to get down quick...or put it in the beans...

I might have to try a cub though...i never thought about the clipped wing...actually, untill last weekend i never considred a high-wing...but after seeing the aerobatics and ---SPEED--- of that decathalon... i want a high wing now...plus its different...most everyone else at the club is low winged...
