As a CubCrafters dealer we get to introduce the Carbon Cub to a broad range of flying enthusiasts. When we attend events such as the Golden West Fly-in/Airshow where last weekend we had several Carbon Cubs on display, we know somebody is interested they come back for a second look. We know they're really interested when they return with their wife.

The guy that showed the most enthusiasm for the Carbon Cub at Golden West was an F/A 18 Instructor Pilot with Strike Fighter Squadron 122 from Lemoore Naval Air Station. This likeable young officer was at Golden West performing his incredible F/A 18 Super Hornet flight demonstration routine. You would not believe what he could make that airplane do.

He took time away from his flight duties to visit our display. He later returned, wife, child, and parents in tow, specifically to share with them his excitement over the Carbon Cub.

So the next time you're watching an F/A 18 demo and you think to yourself "hey, that's pretty cool, I'd like to give that a try," remember that when that F/A 18 pilot is watching you fly your Carbon Cub, he's probably thinking the same thing.
