Who says cubs don’t have lights?

This is a re-post from 2 years ago, but nothing has changed. Tailwheel Santa and his front-seat elf are out there watching you! So be sure to fly a tight pattern, don’t say “last call” and keep flying fun!

Since our last “Flying a perfectly trimmed airplane” reel got so many questions:
In many tailwheel aircraft, including J3 cubs, the pilot sits in the rear seat. This is for optimal weight distribution, keeping the airplane’s center of gravity within limits. Visibility is actually better from the rear seat as you have a wider field of view.
So now if someone remarks “OMG! Where’s the pilot!” you’ll have the answer! Also, the earth is not flat 😆.

Piper J3/L4 aircraft were used for a myriad of jobs in the military, observation being one of the most important. So when we have a student soloing a Cessna 172 we always send a cub up to keep an eye on things!

Get yourself to a grass strip and get into a cub. You won’t regret it.
