Sweet. That was the Willamette River, and the Aurora Airport is about 25 miles from here.

Looks like Thrust is the major component of success here. Needs a lot of oomph to get airborne on short, rocky runways. Very impressive.

Neat trick, but if you can't haul cargo or passengers what is the point(other than flying in for a personal hunt/prospect)?

Has an empty weight of 1500 pounds and a gross weight of 2500 pounds. How does that compare to a Super Cub?

Approximately double the gross.

Pondering that CG, especially in a cross wind.

What I have seen is that the Super Cub gross is 1500 to 2000 pounds depending on the engine configuration.

Aren't some of those competition planes and just that, built for competition?

Then there are the real Bush Planes and Bush Pilots . . .

Correct?

I really like that it is a twin, and I bet you could increase range without terribly hurting cruise speed by shutting one down in flight.
