  • Ed's got a new project! It's a 1950s PA-18 Super Cub that hasn't flown in a dozen years. This is just the beginning…

    Ed, That’s a great project and a lovely aircraft. I look forward to watching your updates. I did exactly the same last year with my Beagle Husky (as featured in Project News, Oct 23). That too had not flown for 13 years or so and it’s a great feeling when we return these old ladies to where they belong - in the air!👍😎

    Nice place you have there Ed. Perfect man cave! Hope there’s a coffee brewer in there! Thanks for the update. Keep them coming 😊

      No power - so bring a flask for the coffee!

    Great project. Are you working to a budget Ed?

      Yes that's the aim - necessary spend on things like the cylinders, small discretionary spend on the panel. Otherwise just my time and effort to tidy up and modernise the appearance in the cockpit.

    Looks like a nice project, I see its done over 8000 hours! Looking forward to seeing the completed panel.

      She's an old girl with lots of hours, but she wears them well.
