Cub in my future?

I ordered and watch a great video " Flying Route 66" by flyer photographer Russell Munson. The pictures were amazing. More importantly, in a special segment he gave tribute to the SuperCub he'd been flying for 30 years.

This video kind of woke me up to the difference between ... traveling by air .. and flying .. Munson makes this point vividly with his photographs. The difference in flying your looking at what you fly over .. you fly slow .. and you don't especially care where exactly you're going or when you'll arrive.

The SuperCub can land about anywhere .. very low stall .. open windows .. and yes its slow. They quite making the Supercub about 10 yrs ago .. but there are a number of knockoffs in a wide price range .. including ..

the Husky .. a workhorse version .. up to $250k ..
the Cub Legend ( Dallas ) .. a sport version .. around $70k
Cubcrafters Top Cub .. probably similar to Cub Legend ..

Thinking about trading out the 172 for one of these taildraggers. You can outfit them with patoons for water access .. another certificate!
