My Cap 10 likes taking me to East Anglia, an area I like to fly in (although sadly Swanton and Snoring have closed). Sometimes I can fly to my wife's family cottage on the Norfolk coast thanks to the excellent local farmstrip. Where are you based, Lowtimer? Fancy trading flights in something? I ought to pay Stik a visit also.

knobbyg, doing the tailwheel tick in a Cub is a good idea. It has a more pronounced three point attitude and is harder to land than a Cap. It's also just great fun to fly. The Cap is hard to taxi in a breeze, but not hard to land once you've figured out how to make it slow down and descend. I love it.

The flying programmes indicated by Lowtimer and knobby do at least show how people needn't be limited by the market prevalance of the usual types as trainers/rentals.
