Default RE: Beginners Beware...Cub in Trouble


ORIGINAL: MinnFlyer

That really has nothing to do with it being a Cub, the guy took off before he had sufficient flying speed. A trainer would have done the same thing in that situation.

A bigger reason why a Cub is a poor choice of trainer is the weak cabin under the wing. One hit on a wingtip and the cabin will be toast.
Agreed.
