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

Car'n Jab, let's save the ATSB investigation, give us the full details on how you accomplished the almost impossible:eek:

Aeroo 5th Jun 2010 11:42

It wasn't JCP was it? :sad:

ForkTailedDrKiller 5th Jun 2010 11:51

Geez Jaba, you did make a mess of it !!

Can't wait to tell the Townsville Refueller he was right - again!

Dr :8

remoak 5th Jun 2010 12:01

I TOLD you guys! Dangerous damn things. Now get that wheel welded onto the front immediately...

Runaway Gun 5th Jun 2010 12:09

I've had no luck googling the TAF to find the cause !!

ForkTailedDrKiller 5th Jun 2010 12:40


C'mon you geese, how about we just wait for the official investigation :ugh:
Where is Plankie when ya need him?

He would be able to tell us exactly how Jaba screwed up!

Dr :8

VH-XXX 5th Jun 2010 12:46

Has anyone heard from Planky since he started his flight from Qld to the UK in his Archer or whatever it was?

Flying Binghi 5th Jun 2010 12:52

Jabawocky 5th Jun 2010 13:06

Must have been a GPS problem :eek:

PyroTek 5th Jun 2010 14:54

Geez, Don't scare me!

frigatebird 5th Jun 2010 21:42

Whose pocketed the video..? There MUST have been a video..!!

john_tullamarine 5th Jun 2010 22:33

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 ... :\:sad:

Jabawocky 5th Jun 2010 22:47

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 :E

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

J:ok:

john_tullamarine 6th Jun 2010 00:01

.. hook, line, and sucker ..... ripper video .. that guy has an hour or two in the bird.

Aerozepplin 6th Jun 2010 00:49

That video actually made me gasp at a couple of points! Brilliant.

remoak 6th Jun 2010 01:30

Good video. I was trying to do that stuff in the Caravan yesterday, but I wasn't drunk so maybe that is why I was having trouble... memo to self... don't fly sober... :}

PyroTek 6th Jun 2010 02:01

Jaba: I told ya it'd be great fun! Hence at the moment you find me in the Cub more than anything else.:ok:
Bend it and I kill you! (As will BC)
No pressure though :}

How did you go anyway?

If there aren't pics - it didn't happen!

Captain Nomad 6th Jun 2010 05:35

Who wants to see Pyro have a go at those stunts in HIS Cub... :E :D

Tmbstory 6th Jun 2010 07:41

The Cub Video
 
Enjoyed the video, it reminded me of the days in the 1950's when at air shows we would do a slightly similar thing in a Tiger Moth called "The crazy woman takes a fly in an aircraft."

All good fun in those days.

Tmb.

Jabawocky 6th Jun 2010 08:19

Tail Wheel Envy
 
I was lining up in a C185 the other day when Pyro was doing a circuit or two in the Cub.....Radio was "mines Bigger than Yours"

Again I have no proof of photos......but maybe Warbo will drop in and confirm!:ok:

PyroTek 6th Jun 2010 08:42

I said "Mine's better" :ok:

Jabawocky 6th Jun 2010 09:54

you aint seen Warbo's 185.........Chuckles and Forkie and 185skywagon would have fights over her!

even has a TV.........yes DVD's for the PAX all built in!

More GNS than Forkie too....:ok:

Jabawocky 6th Jun 2010 11:00

So which class of airspace was that, G,E,D,C.......pick any other letter!

Get nailing there lad!:ok:

PyroTek 6th Jun 2010 11:37

j3pipercub 6th Jun 2010 12:12

Ah buttercub, soon, soon, I shall have you in my grasp...

PyroTek 6th Jun 2010 12:15

Don't you steal her away from me!:sad:

Capn Bloggs 6th Jun 2010 13:30


Here is the evidence
Jaba you maniac! I'm not sure I want to share the sky with you! :}

Wanderin_dave 6th Jun 2010 23:12

Is that AW in the front seat?

Jabawocky 7th Jun 2010 01:20

Nahhhh thats Pyro's Hot date!:E

j3pipercub 7th Jun 2010 01:53

Is that you in a wig Jaba?

conflict alert 7th Jun 2010 02:29


Where is Plankie when ya need him?
This wouldn't be the JP from the Manawatu (United Aviation days) would it??? If so - where is he hiding/doing these days. I heard that he had departed our shores to cross the ditch after CAA investigated him all those years ago.

PyroTek 7th Jun 2010 07:01

Yes yes, was my date for the day. Would I let jaba in an aircraft with me? :}

Jabawocky 7th Jun 2010 07:30

Would I let Pyro in my Retard Vehicle :hmm:
