Piper Cub

I had the first hour of my 8 hr Tailgragger Farmstrip conversion at Clacton today.
Very pleased with the instuction,but what a difference to fly from the Cherokee.
The Cub aircraft is very responsive and does not suffer fools gladly,if the rudder and aileron co-ordination is not spot on then it quickly lets you know.
Or the instructor does!
Did some general handling ,Steep turns,stalls power on and off and a spin which was quite eye opener.
I know I'm going to like this.

PS Unfortunately the weather does not look good for rest of W/E here
