Summer finally found it's way to Southern California, and it's only two months late... there's been a record seven days in a row without marine layer. Afternoon high temps at the beach have been reaching into the upper 70's, perfect weather for flying around in the cub with the windows open.
From what I've been told, this cub saw service in WWII. The only equipment that has been added to it is a radio and transponder which are charged by a solar panel that's plugged into a 12 volt adapter under the pilot's seat when the plane is on the ground.

Going to pick up a 1946 J3 Friday...can't wait, going to be so much fun. It is two weeks older than me, but in better shape. I have had a private pilots certificate for 45 years, and never owned a plane, thought it was about time, and I think it is going to be the perfect airplane for the kind of flying I like to do. By the way ...Great video!

I am looking at getting a Cub. Where did you mount your radio and transponder and where did you get this solar panel setup? I want a cub, but I would want a transponder and radio also. Thanks for the video. Blue skies.

Are you running your electrical off a battery or do you have RAT? Also are you running a Transponder in your overhead stack?

Is it personal preference to sit in the back when flying solo or is it to do with balancing and trimming the piper.

+Andrew Gosnell When cubs are flow solo, the pilot must be in the back... it's a weight and balance requirement. The CG won't permit solo from the front seat. I suppose if you put two 80 pound sandbags in the back, it would be OK.

Just curious as to why a transponder when the aircraft was originally certified without one?
@LevinMedia

Uptight Nonchalant it was based at SNA (Charlie airspace) generally flying around the so cal basin is way less of a hassle with a transponder.

Never the less great video. And 👍 for flying that thing well in congested airspace.

that makes sense, but if you wanted to could you safely operate up-front?

Why do people use the back seat of the cub?
