That paint scheme is just wrong. There is nothing about that, that makes it "Cool". At least the Cub guys respect the performance.

HA...I got a big kick out of this reply.

Heck they are'nt that much faster. A local 85hp tcraft is only about 10 mph faster than my 180 hp supercub

I donno what a SC does but I have found the lackluster performance problem (bad points) on my 85 T, it now cruises at 120mph at 2450rpm. It'll run to 2750+ if I don't watch the throttle...wonder how fast that would be

Is it true that the first lightplane with a lightnin bolt paint-job might have been a TAYLOR cub?

Re: I really think someone is very confused......

I agree, Jim. The Cub guys were respectful, what can they say? Sometimes some folks taste is all in their mouth.

This why I do not have my J3 and BC12D in the same hanger! Don't like mixing.
