I never flew a real full size Cub but have about 40 hrs in a '39 Reed Clipped Wing Cub with a Continental A90 engine covered with Razor Back. It was one of the original J-3 Cubs from Moton Field in Tuskegee Alabama of Tuskegee airmen fame. It had been ground looped back in the '40's and hung in the ceiling of the hanger until '62. It had wood spars and one wing spar was broken at the root. By converting it to a Reed, we didn't have to buy a new spar. The engine was the original Continental A65 that we converted to a A90. I really enjoyed flying it. The amount a float was about like a 7AC Champ. I looked the "N #" up on the Internet but it is no longer registered. When I see a picture of Hazel Sig's Reed Clip Wing it reminds me of the one I flew except we had it white with red trim.

The first time I flew my H9 40 size Cub with a Saito 50 I was reminded of the adverse yaw factor. I now have a Robin Hood 80 with a OS 91 Surpass II that flies just like my H9 Cub. I also have a Sig LT40 tail dragger ARF with a OS 52 and it doesn't seem to have such an adverse yaw factor but the landing is a lot like a Cub. I've had the LT40 ever since they came out with the ARF. Been 10 yrs anyway?
