Oh sure... parks his bird on the runway threshhold then goes fishing for the next three hours! [-X :wink:

If that bale of cash ever shows up on my doorstep, I might just get me one of those.

Good vid, though it sure as heck doesn't take bales of cash to do WHAT they were doing.....in my case 750 hrs of my labor and 43K, just saying. Now to do WHAT they were doing, and in THE PLANES they were flying, that gets pricey.

Re: Having Fun Never Gets Old

I can relate to this video, but as a kid my hand-me-down bike wasn't that cool.... 8)
And my '46 Cub ain't no shinny new spiffy bird with either bells nor whistles. #-o
But I get by quite nicely, thank you. :D

Re: Having Fun Never Gets Old

Jim has taken an idea and made it work for him!!
Have spoken to him a few times, He is a businessman!!
He is also doing something he loves. Have heard the Company has ups and down, likes and dislikes, just like all.
Great video, I'm sure there was enough room to land over, and it sure would have looked not nears as fun to be checking your reel with just trees behind both aircraft!!
Again great video.
Jim isn't in the business to sell to many working cubs!!, He builds grown up Toys for Grown up Boys and Girls!!

They sure are nice Aircraft and real glad he's makin them!
I'll never have one!!

Well If "Grown" up means having enough disposable cash to buy a bling tube a fabric toy. Then man, I can hardly wait to get "Grown" up. ...never happen though, I still cry and suck my thumb on occasion;)

Hey-
I'm not puttin' him, nor his aircraft, or his bicycle down.
And it is a great video.
I learned in life a long time ago that it is best to be happy with what you have/can afford.... as best as possible :lol:
In fact, I would love to own a shiny new CC product!
Just ain't too likely....
