Hey everyone!! I just got a Cub last Sunday (the 1st) and flew with a friend the very same evening. But the best thing is what happened today. My whole family is on vacation in the Texas Hill Country and after logging a couple of hours of sim time I went out and flew my new Cub!!!! I'll post some shots of the area I was flying in. A small field at the base of a pretty tall hill between the trees and the river and the other valley wall. The wind was gusting up the valley so it was pretty tricky. Oh yeah, there is also a telephone line along one side as well. But I got two great flights and no crashes!!!!! Just thought I'd share with those who know how it feels.

Welcome to this forum. I'm new here myself but I've found a ton of great info here. What part of Texas are you from...?

Back in the 80's, I was stationed at Bergstrom AFB in Austin. Not to far away from you! I had a blast in Texas...I was disappointed when I was finally transferred to another Air Force Base in California. Nothing but good memories about Texas.

Texas has been pretty good to me. Good friends and this is where I met my wife, so all in all I'd say it's been great
