MC - hello! Beautiful photos, beautiful project, and Mrs. M. should be grateful as years will be added to your life and your new youthful slender frame should make up for all the evenings devoted to your beautiful baby! Alas, though provision is made for the vineous cargo, where is the second seat to take her for a flight with the wind in her hair? - guess it will have to be the Cub, with the doors off...
So much work goes into frame, fabric, finish. My beloved GOFER Supercub was sold to White Waltham, in superb condition thanks to the labours of my engineer, who spent a very cold winter in a similar plastic construction breathing fumes! I will forward your epic to him to enjoy.
My daddy was a boatbuilder and sailor, so educated me properly in the ways of navigation, met, and caution...so many happy hours flying and good company.
Do drop in to Shenington (Edgehill) when your baby is fully fledged....
Mary
