Ladies Love Taildraggers

This is pretty cool.

If you're a single guy pondering all the fish in the sea, this might be a good place to start (at least for inspiration. They're probably all spoken for. :))

Z, don't let your wife catch you looking at that site. The name alone might keep you grounded!

Yep, we DO love our taildraggers. :D Some of us are happily married, but we can still appreciate men with taildraggers, especially those with fat tires, even more so the ones who can play a mandolin. ;)

BTW, are there any women on this site anymore? Seems like there used to be one or two.

Re: Ladies Love Taildraggers

Hi Diana, there's at least one other woman on this site: me. I've got a homebuilt (replica) Supercub, and am also on Ladieslovetaildraggers. Each site has something different to offer, and I enjoy them both.

Baloney is still baloney, no matter how thin you slice it.

Hi! I landed at a few grass strips not far from you! Flew into Shamrock at Brooklyn and spent a few days there. Loved that little grass strip, and the town. Is the airport still for sale? I also landed at Tripp Creek (near St. John's) and a nice guy there fixed a problem I had with the airplane, as I was flying down from visiting a friend (lady with a TriPacer) in Gladwin.

BTW, if you're ever in southern Missouri, stop in and see us! :)

Here is what our grass runways look like when the corn is tall. This was my birthday party last August:

Thanks, Rod! :) We really had a blast that weekend. Lots of flying all day for a few days. Lots of people giving rides.

I was hoping to make it to your airfield when I was in PA, but ran out of time and good weather. Are you still based at that private grass field?

Oh neat site!

I just recently joined this site, and I'm a woman too... becoming a Stinson owner. I guess that's makes three so far.

Yes I am Diana. We are having a BCP Fly-In June 25 - 27 there (50PA). You, and all the other girls, are most welcome!

I know one other girl that likes to lurk on the forum. She has a beautiful yellow cub with big tires, a belly tank, and USAF markings. She flies up to Alaska often during the summer.

Re: Ladies Love Taildraggers

Hi Diana, loved your video! If I'm in your area, I'll stop by and say hi.

Justine, what model Stinson? Where are you based?

Cubchick, still have the Supercub & 206 (I think that's what it is)? Seems you've been pretty busy the past couple of years - what are you up to?

Highlander Lynn was on here not too long ago, maybe late fall, so she's still around.

You might be thinking of Christina Young, who goes back home to AK every summer from working in NJ.

I'm friends with a girl on Facebook named Melissa Pemberton, who is a competition aerobatic pilot and flies an Edge 540. She's only 25 or something, how awesome is that!??
