Nice pictures. I can't wait until I get to fly something on big wheels. Until I do, your pictures and BCP do a good job of reminding me why big tires are better.

marceldulac, I really enjoyed that same set-up for the rougher strips. Smooths things out nicely. Looks a little breezy in that photo.

Nice pics. You are a long way from the Muskokas up on the bunny bar. Where are the second and third pics taken?

cubonfloats, that photo of the cub was a few years back. Can't remember if I had a choice or not on the registration, but it was imported from the states I think around 2000 or 2001 and registered commercial on my OC. My memory just isn't what it used to be. But we just called it GIGGEE. It was a nice working 180 hp cub. sheephunter

Blew a tire on a gravel strip up north. Jacking up a fully loaded C-46 with a car jack proved more difficult than we tought.
