Have you ever wondered what it is like to own and fly an antique airplane? Are you looking to recapture the basic joy of flying? Are you trapped in a glass cockpit with Otto Pilot? Did you ever want to just get in a simple plane --stick and rudder--and just go?

Well, now you can! Join veteran classic aircraft pilots Lunchbox and JP as they journey South in a vintage 1946 J-3 Piper Cub to lovely Key West Florida to escape the winter blahs and seek their fortunes. This DVD makes a wonderful introduction to the art of flying the venerable Piper Cub.

Youll learn about the distinct features that make the classic Piper Cub a delightful airplane to fly whilst you experience the joy of flight from the cockpit during an actual cross-country trip.

Along the way you'll meet a great cast of characters, learn a bit of philosophy and have a few laughs. Produced by the Center for Classic Aircraft Skills, this hour long film is an informative, entertaining and occasionally offbeat look at Cub flying. This is an "indie" style film and the the total opposite of those fancy training videos that put you to sleep.
