This is something special if not unique.
Let us just remind ourselves that "donkey" stops in the wrong places with monotonous regularity. I also think your understanding of the word 'special' is at odds with mine and others.
Are you really championing someone who keeps putting a clearly un-airworthy aircraft into these situations? The Cub would not have been crashed, stripped and in need of a rebuild had Kirk flown it responsibly in the first place.
But hey, if he's your idea of a hero keep banging that drum. Just don't be surprised when others point out the flaws in that idolatry and the double standards.
