    Nick,
    You are certainly invited to bring your Cub, next time we gather at Deer Pasture. We do allow non-Taylorcraft airplanes as long as they have a tailwheel. I am sure the Taylorcraft guys will be gracious enough to give you a 15 minute head-start. Ha!! Seriously, give me a call sometime and I would enjoy talking airplanes. With Christmas coming it may be several weeks before we can have another Deer Pasture day, but we'd love to have you. Normally the airport is unattended private property. So give me a call if you plan to be in the area.

        I thought that the F model Luscombe WAS a light sport. I took it for granted which is always dangerous. In any event it is a great little airplane , aerobatic, fun to fly and worth getting a private ticket if you can find a nice one. One must be very careful when buying a Luscombe, as corrosion is a big problem with them. JC
