Piper Cub Merchandise

[Wander00]

here's a really silly question - daughter of a friend is an item with a Piper Cub pilot (silly girl, I know, but won't be told). Wants to buy him a pressie - baseball cap, tee shirt, whatever - Piper Cub logoed. She, and I, cannot so far find a source in UK - anyone know where in UK one can get such bad taste merchandise. Personally I preferred the tee shirt worn by the absolutely stunning daughter of a friend who wore a tee shirt emblazoned "Sex is like the air that you breathe" and she was not yet 16 - my son has one almost as good " You have been a bad girl, now go to my room". Now, back to PA 18 stuff. Any ideas please

The lady has taste. Cubs are just fantastic!

Isn't Google a wonderful thing. (http://www.supaprice.co.uk/p/result.jsp?ga=uk8&q=piper+cub+for+sale+uk)

(The shop at the Atlantic Canada Aviation Museum (http://www.atlanticcanadaaviationmuseum.com/) in Halifax has some fantastic Piper Cub merchandise, but sadly, no online shop, but you could give them a call and see where they get it.)

You could try the piper club in France as that is where you declare yourself to be......

Piper Club de France ____________________________________________________________ ___ (http://www.piperclubfrance.org/)

Maybe buy a year's membership?

The girl has excellent taste. In aircraft, at least. I haven't met the pilot :D

There is no accounting for taste, especially bad taste!!!

"Sex is like the air that you breathe"
" You have been a bad girl, now go to my room".
They certainly are incredibly witty and must reflect admirably on the wearer.

I do have a Cub T Shirt design ready to go, along the same lines as our Chipmunk, Cessna and Warrior/Cherokee ones, (and intend to do it in yellow obviously) but we are being a bit cautious over new products until we see the econmomy start to pick up

Yup, googled totally unsuccessfully, on the UK site (where the lady is). Looks like may have to buy in the US. But thanks for all the comments - even those that add little to the sum of human knowledge. But then it is a "rumour" network, and therein lies its charm!

She'll have to pay postage from the US, but here are a couple of ideas for her:

The Pilot Shop - Piper Cub Metal Sign (http://www.pilotstore.com/store/item.asp?ITEM_ID=2113)

The Pilot Shop - Flight Of Passage by Rinker Buck (http://www.pilotstore.com/store/item.asp?ITEM_ID=1656&DEPARTMENT_ID)=

The Pilot Shop - Piper Cub Prop Clock (http://www.pilotstore.com/store/item.asp?ITEM_ID=1752&DEPARTMENT_ID)=
