Excellent posts, folks!
I can't say anything about the Super Cub, but I truly love the two Cubs that I fly out of Berlin-Tempelhof. (One is blue-silver and doesn't have a starter, the other is red and does. Both are somewhat older than I am...)
I think the wonderful idea of "summer flying" (window and/or door open, arm (or camera) hanging out etc). should also be given a mention.
And, an Always Remembered Instructor's Advise (ARIA) on how to get into this wonderful machine:
"
Any method that results in you eventually sitting in it and not having damaged anything in the process, is a good one."
