In any event I would be careful at low level ie short final and over the hedge ( I'm guessing this is all about STOL) since turbulence and manoeuvring ie aileron use will cause a fair amount of local airflow change which will mean accurate judgement of the stalling angle, or rather your proximity to it(!), difficult to judge. It sounds like jolly good fun though, but I think that looking out front and judging sink rate, attitude, and stick position/feel to be more important
nonradio,
I totally agree. I don't envisage myself crossing the hedge looking out at the AoA, in the same way as I don't look at the ASi in that situation. That said, it strikes me as a better option to have an instrument for critical phases of flight outside the aircraft a fair distance away (i.e. not near focus) between your 10 and 11 o'clock than shaded down in the instrument panel. It's a low tech head up display, if you like!
Finally, Real Cubs are flown from the BACK seat ...
I'll give you that one.
