Default Attention Full scale pilots lookin for some time.
This might interest someone out there. Here's the deal. I live in NC now, I own a pristine 1941 85hp Piper cub that is hangared in NJ and hasn't been flown in over a year. Instead of letting it collect dust, I'd like to get it down here, but being 6'4 and 225 lbs I'm not about to spend that much time in it. So I've got two options to get it here:

1st option is to drive up to NJ, take the airplane apart, rent a truck, drive it back. Put it back together . You get the idea. Not something I'd want to do.

2nd option is you fly it down for me. I pay for you to get there, and any expenses you incur on the way down,i.e. gas etc. Your looking at probably a good 6-7 hours of X-country time at least.

Let me know if anyone out there is interested. A very important note, you must be tailwheel rated and have some cub time. PM me for more details.

A picture. Also, I'll make sure it has a fresh annual and is 100% perfect.

I'd do it in a heartbeat, just no taildragger time. 250 hrs in a C-340, I'd kill myself in a Cub.
