77 J-3 Cub Make
Do Rudder Decal
Since there was no way to obtain a Cub rudder
decal with the little bear holding the red Cub sign, I ordered another pair
of the Cub wheel decals and put them on the rudder as shown below. Not scale
I know, but an attempt to have something there.
Tuesday morning I will be going over to
Mike Midkiff's place in Hurst for instruction on how to make and bench test
two rubber motors for the J-3 Cub, one for flight testing and one for flying
(I think). He
is going to show me how to make a stuffer stick for inserting the rubber
motor into the fuselage, how to braid the rubber strands of the motor, and
provide me with a stirrup (or
fitting) for attaching the rubber motor to the end of
the prop shaft after the rubber motor is wound up. This should be a
really informative session for me. By the way, Mike has just been elected as
president of the Texas Cloud Climbers, our north Texas free flight club. I
think he will provide some real service and leadership to our
club.....................Tandy
