Personally, I'd keep the Luscombe over the Cub. Luscombes are a bit more squirrelly on the ground, but are a lot fun, not to mention quite a bit faster on the same hp. You also will command a bit more respect as a tailwheel pilot if you fly a Luscombe.

@trevorfurlotte Год назад

I would keep both. I mean come on, CUB! So iconic but the Luscombe is a more practical plane.

@mikeryan6277 Год назад

@@trevorfurlotte agreed

@Oldman5261 Год назад

Agreed. Both are unique in their own way.

@mouser485 Год назад

Same here, I vote: keep-’em both !

@benjigault9043 Год назад

Luscombes were too narrow for two full size men in my opinion. I like the tandem seating and open door flying better. Both are super sweet planes.

@skycop56 Год назад

Who’d a thunk it? Jimmy has 380,000 subscribers and growing rapidly. Actually, when I saw his first videos I was pretty sure he would be a hit! RU-vid is becoming the video library for everyone thanks to guys like Jimmy.

@captchia Год назад

I’d keep the Luscombe too. Of course, I already own an 8E! Don’t buy the hype that they’re more squirrelly on the ground. They are just more responsive to the rudder pedals on the ground. If you try and taxi it like a Cub, stomping on the pedals, you’ll ground loop it. They like finesse, like any grand lady does!

@JC-wr7mu Год назад

By squirrelly, I meant essentially what you said. You have to have a bit more finesse, that said, I and countless others learned to fly tailwheels in a Luscombe. If I knew a guy only had Luscombe time, I'd let him go fly a Cub. If a guy only had Cub time, I wouldn't let him fly the Luscombe without getting some training in it.

@mikeryan6277 Год назад

@@JC-wr7mu so where do I fit in having all champ time with the exception of an hour in a Cub ?

@JC-wr7mu Год назад

@@mikeryan6277 Nothing wrong with all Champ time, but I'd highly recommend getting some training in a Luscombe before you flew one solo.

@mikeryan6277 Год назад

@@JC-wr7mu for sure and will if I ever get the opportunity but for now my friend only has Cubs Chiefs and Champs. Thank for the response fly safe.

@JC-wr7mu Год назад

@@mikeryan6277 All great airplanes and a lot of fun to fly. Also more comfortable, especially if you are a bit taller. Cubs and Champs cost a fortune for a good one, Chiefs are a really good airplane that you can find for reasonable money.

@johnwagoner2279 Год назад

I loved flying the 8A. I put around 150 hours on the all metal wing version in 4 years while I was in college. I found wheel landing to be the best way control it on the ground. Many of my college friends got their first experience flying in in a small plane with me. They had a lot of fun watching me hand prop it. This was flat-out the most fun seat-of-the-pants low and slow experience I ever had in the air. Wish I could afford one now. Thanks for the memories Jimmy.

@U_ever Год назад

My late father-in-law was a retired airline check pilot and when he hung up his monkey suit and came home to stay he added a sweet old Luscombe 8 to his harem of Cub Cruisers, Meyers, and Mooney's. This is a guy who flew everything from Constellations to 747-400's but he absolutely loved that Luscombe airplane. I pray this one brings you as much joy.

@mattipollari8905 Год назад

I agree with the Luscombe over a Cub! Jimmy, you would have better starting if you pulled the prop thru when priming. I had a 65 HP Chief and a Luscombe - both hand start, and they started very well in summer and winter. I think they were Eisman mags which were made with platinum points- never had trouble with them. Slick mags are ok if you overhaul them every 400-500 hours, and they do not hand start near as well.

Jimmy, my first AC was a 46 Luscombe 8A with metal wings and it cost me $1200 with annual and a mid time engine. Of course that was back in 1969. It appears they are going for $15 to $25 k now days. To bad you didn't get in touch with me. I am located near Marshall, Tx. I would have loved to travel an assist you on these taildragger AC. It is not to late.

@Nord3202 Год назад

Cold compression checks are higher than hot because the cylinder is a choke bore & expands to straight when hot. Cold the rings are tight & oil thick. Also you can buy gaskets & screens for old fuel bowls at tractor supply.

My first solo was in a Luscombe 8F. Was fun to fly especially on skis, this was back in 1965. My first lesson was at 8,000 feet because of turbulance and a hawk passed over head just a few feet above us. I was amazed to see a bird at that altitude. In my later years of flying I was engaged with a couple birds flying at altitude at night. One made a mess of my Twin Comanche's wind screen and another on the nose of my Aztec.

Gas can dissolve rubber gaskets so make sure you use one designed for that system. Buy a sheet of fiber gasket material and make your own, it works with almost any fluid.

All metal luscombe over a fabric cub with all the problems of fabric. And the sturdy compartmentalize construction of the luscombe. Better air speeds on the same horsepower.

When you overdub you can set up your audio interface to be latency compensated in the suite you are using. That way you can lip sink exactly.

While I was growing up, my father had a 1947 Luscombe 8A fully acrobatic. Some of the greatest memories of that era the last time I saw the airplane it was sitting on the tarmac at the sky, Harbor Airport with two flat tires. By then it had been sold. I would buy that airplane from you in a minute if I could.
