RE: Dave Patrick super cub
I did talk with DP himself, I think in January, and found out a few things that may explain the delays. There is a large US distributor using the same factory as DPM. The large distributor is trying to monopolize the factory, thus reason for the delays. Do I believe it??? Maybe a little, but I'm not that gullible to believe the whole 9 yards. I knew of the delays before ordering it, (through local hobby shop where I work part time). I have a 25 year old Balsa USA Cub that I just went through and re-covered. It will be ready to fly this spring with the original OS 120 twin, (if the 120 doesn't perform well, then I'll take the 160 twin intended for the Supercub and use it in the Cub and maybe forget about the DPM Supercub for a while).
Enjoy yours...
