No better way to take in the sights & sounds of
Oregon's PNW than in the Piper Cub from A2A Simulations.

Fine shots all, but I cringe everytime I see that crooked name plate.  You'd think with all the other fussy stuff they offer in 'Accusim', they'd have fixed that.

Thanks! Yes, those would be the Tundra Tires. When I fly the Cub it is usually this model... that way I can land wherever I want!  ;)

and yes... The PNW (Pacific North West) scenery add on is amazing.  :o

were the wheels really that big on the real thing???
The standard J3 had 4" diameter wheels and the original powerplant didn't allow for much tire weight.

Nice shots Dave, of one of my all time favorite little aircraft. Check out this web page https://www.fiddlersgreen.net/models/Aircraft/Piper-Cub.html that I came across if you are interested in the history of the Cub. Nice read.
