Zane makes it bigtime

Hopefully Zane will still talk to all of us now that he is getting famous after his Cub Crafters ferry....

(Zane and Brad get interviewed by Steve Johnson of Supercub.org this AM before the show)

Image

After the interview and once the cameras stopped rolling, Zane and Steve got into a kerfuffle on who's site was the coolest. Mums the word on who won!

Can't say as I approve of those tie downs. :D

Re: Zane makes it bigtime

Yeah, I once tied my airplane to similar tie-downs at a friend's home at Erie, CO. Pretty stiff wind that day--in fact, I'd had to go around once when I ran out of rudder the first time, due to the crosswind, but it slacked off just enough to get in the second attempt. After a couple hours, it was time for me to leave, and the blocks had moved several inches!

Re: Zane makes it bigtime

Yea, and if you forget to untie the plane before taking off the amount of drag those big concrete thingies will have is going to greatly affect the aerodynamics and maneuverability of the plane!

Glad you guys are safe and having a good time up there getting some notoriety while you're at it! Looks like the weather is still nice too!

I hope they kissed and made up after that skirmish. It's too small of a community to remain mortal enemies

Judging by her smirk, I'd say Laura won. She's Billie's mum, does that count? :lol:
