I made it! 80. First thing - roll upside down, wiggle the wings. Then four slow rolls, a four point roll, and an Immelmann turn. No, the first thing was a hand start (I have a starter; just wanted to make sure I could still do it) in my Cub of 59 years.
Then, touch and goes in the other two Cubs, with some engine failure practice thrown in. 24 landings total. Even helped the tower by picking up some keys on a closed runway. Then I shot a couple landing gear legs with yellow paint.
Half a beer with one of the girls - Cub pilot and really blonde - off to dinner with the Greek.
Not bad, huh?
