Great old aero engineer Nick Jones once told me that NASCAR champ, Cale Yarborough, bought himself a Piper Cub (also designed by C. G. Taylor, btw) and checked himself out in it that afternoon. The next day he checked out a couple of his buddies in it. Some people are just naturals at flying. If you're good on a bike, you can fly! Plant the tailwheel first on landing and don't ground loop it.


Anybody can fly an aeroplane, alright?
