New Year's Eve, 2007.
What better way to close out the year than an evening flight with a couple of Piper Cubs. One a SuperCub and one a slow J3!

Jim Newton stopped in at Front Royal, VA, this afternoon, and we finally met in person, and looked at each other's aircraft.

Boy, a SuperCub sure is roomy compared to a J3. Beautiful airplane, Jim. Then we took off together and flew down the Shenandoah Valley for a few pictures.

Here you can see we are flying below the Skyline Drive again, same place where the other day the road went up into the clouds.

The last two Jim took of me, and just sent them by email.
