RE: next plane
One of the things that makes a Cub tricky to fly is that the original Cub was designed back when engines were not much more than a squirrel in a cage. So to get it off the ground, they put a HUGE wing on it.
Well, that's fine for flying from point A to point B, but when you try to turn, that big surfboard generates so much adverse yaw that turning is difficult.
In the 30's, a few pilots discovered that if you put a real engine in it and clipped a few feet off of each wing, you had a really nice airplane!
Problem is, most manufacturers make it so you can build it either way, and too many people think that by clipping the wing, the Cub will no longer be a nice, easy flier - when in fact, the oposite is true - Cubs fly much better with a clipped wing and with the full wing, they are difficult to turn.
