All that and you are pretty close? Whew.

Glen the Champs and J3s could use a driveway with some headwind including space to turn around. There is a SuperSTOL that just came out with all the mods from the factory that you would normally do to a bush plane. When you land it you just slow down and fall slowly out of the sky. In our all metal 152 we couldn't get anywhere near that short. The elder classmen must have been impressed though since the girl working inside asked if I would join the precision team the next year. I did not get to participate unfortunately.

Oh to be young and full of inexperience and good reflexes.
