Flying with pigpenracing - this is what its all about

[texasclouds]

Shawn aka pigpenracing took me up in his 140 and J-3 yesterday, and I had a blast! This is what flying is all about, flyin low and slow. And yes you can fit the front seat of a cub at 6'2" if you take your shoes off.

It was great to finally meet you Mark! I had a good time and glad I had the chance to get you in some different airplanes.
As I said feel free to come back anytime! I will be at the airport a bunch over the next couple of weeks since I have some time off for the holidays.
We will do the V35B and Stearman next

Those are beautiful planes. I told @pigpenracing I'd come visit one I got my 170, but haven't had a chance. Now something to look forward to.

There outta be a law against one pilot owning so many gorgeous looking airplanes!

Love that altimeter in the J-3

Good times, for sure. Which one did you hand prop?

 

[pigpenracing]

I’ll let Mark hand prop the Stearman if he really wants hand prop practice

Boss man propped it while i was shoe horning into the front seat.

140 has lectric start.

I’ll probably look into a 140 if the LSA weights are increased. Electric starter would be icing on the cake.
