What'saCobra,

I got a huge laugh out of the Cub story....so true. They were/are nasty machines to get off the ground, very under- (or over depending upon your perspective) powered, and will ground-loop on you in a nano-second, but they are also part of aviation history, as the Cobra is to the automotive world.

Much like the Cobra, the Piper Cub purists will sing it's praises, as it is quite a sturdy and capable airplane, but it takes a pro to handle one properly.
