If you've ever nosed the plane in & throttled up to TO power to 'sweep the hangar'
You keep a spit cup on the glareshield
If your 172 has nose art
If you once had to wash the plane after an 'IFR' flight due to road salt spray!
Blessed are the curious, for they shall have great adventures!

Looks like the Cabela's in Olympia? I went in there about a week after they opened, and when I saw that Cub a-hanging there I figured that it was my kinda place.

When I stopped & looked up at the Cub as I walked in, a Cabelas employee told me "that's not a real airplane, it's a mock-up". Nope -- looked real to me, right down to a mismatched "cub yellow versus lockhaven yellow" patch job on the fabric. I looked up the tail number when I got home that day, & it matched up to a J3 registered to (as I recall) somebody back in New York. I haven't figured out exactly how they rigged the prop to rotate, it looks like it's still mounted on the end of the crank-- maybe pull the plugs & rig an electric motor through a magneto hole to turn the whole works maybe?

I wonder what made me think of these?

YOU MIGHT BE A REDNECK FLYER IF....

some golfers at the course across the street in Lewiston, ID, complained about a pilot peeing on the tarmac. :oops:
you had to buy more guns because you needed an "airplane gun".
you have remnants of duct tape on your wing struts, although you have NEVER carried an external load. :^o
preheating your engine involves the use of open flame.
you have straw in your baggage compartment to keep your dogs warm.

I wish I had a buck for every time I peed on the airport tarmac somewhere. And for an "airplane gun", I prefer a 3-1/2" 10 gauge. :P

You have white duct tape to fix white areas and black electrical tape and stickers to keep the fabric reinforcing tape from falling off :shock:

Go ya one better:
......if you have duct tape (for patching fabric) in custom colors to match the paint on your airplane.
Or better yet:
..... if you paint your airplane silvery-grey so plain old duct tape will match.
