Considering selling the RV...

[Jaypratt]

I have a 180 Hp exp Super Cub and a RV8. I use both planes often.
This weekend is the Llano, Texas STOL Compitition . Taking the Cub 'Shooter'
The RV8 'Borrowed Horse' will take us to Key West this year from DFW area.
I don't leave without Carol, she helps with maintence cleaning...better than a partner!

I use my RV-9A for fast travel (150 hours last year).

I just tracked down and purchased my grandfathers J-3 Cub. It is still in pieces, but less pieces than a couple weeks ago .

Aside from not having a four place airplane, these two should fit my mission profile pretty darn well. RV for fast, IFR, J-3 for low and slow.

This is what I need to accomplish..

I had a Citabria (7GCBC) before I bought my RV9. Although I liked the Citabria while I had it, it doesn't compare to owning the RV. While it would be nice to have a little more room when I have a passenger, it's hard to beat 180 mph while sipping gas.

The -9s do low and slow pretty well...flaps out, 65-70 kts and fuel burn in the 4.x gph range. But I'm a huge Cub fan too!
