A cub and a 180, that's a nice combination.
I'm jealous!

29x11x10s



Ha Ha just was looking at the thread and thinking of putting a pic of my 207 on but was beat to the punch! Its already here :D

I like the 29's on the 207. lets you get a little more angle of attack on landing and takeoff.

Yeah I took a picture of it this summer just because it looked so bad ass!

What do you use the plane for? I bet with that extra lenght over the 206 to adjust your cg as needed, it could be a really good beach plane.

Re: Tire/wheel combo photos

I grabbed a pair of Aero Classic 8.50-6 4 ply smoothies to replace the 8.0-6s on my 182.

Anybody know if I can put a 8.0-6 tire on a 206 nose fork? It’s got a 7.0-6 on there now and -looks- like there may be room...
