Cub bites the dust!

Is there any truth to the rumour that someone tipped a Piper Cub over at Caboolture this afternoon?

Two thoughts come to mind ..

(a) enough to make a grown man cry

(b) there, but for the Grace of God ... and Lady Luck's benevolence ...

OK

Here is the evidence



seriously the CUB is in perfect condition and it was a lot of fun.....BC thinks I am a sick individual for having such fun!

Now Forkie is a trouble maker........for those who did not notice. A bit of Saturday night fun it seems, but it really uncovered all the cub sympatists!

My phone email and PM's have been numerous......FTDK's turn will come

Back to normal viewing.....unless you all have some interesting CUB photo's and vids. I wonder why Pyro has not posted any.
