That, and I could never get used to a throttle control on the left wall. A strict discipline of one hand on the yoke and one hand on the thrust at all times left me awkward in the cub. A stick in the middle and power where the ash tray should be is a bit confusing. The plywood and canvas was strange too.

No strange shutdown shimmy and rumble like you get in an aluminum skinned Aztruck.

I gave it up in 2002. Cost and culture basis shifted. Daughters in private schools and then to college and law school, put an end to the $100 lunch rides. We even had our own 2400' grass strip.
