    Yes I thought it might be turpentine scrub, but I wasnt totally sure!

    Another old school name in the book that I haven't heard for a while is tarwhinny...which I think is a corruption of tauhinu

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Always wondered why Charlie used a low-wing for hunting…. I’ve flown them for spotting,low wing down gives a great visual,straight and level worthless….always had better results with the high wing with less damage and wear on dirt/gravel airstrips…..

    Was just the Jodel thought wasn't it? Suspect it was simply availability of aircraft at the time and legislation around home builds. Look what happened to the V8 Auster

    Money....the Jodel was the cheapest airframe buy far and very forgiveing
    He admits the limitations of the low wing, let's be honest we all want a 185.

    Yeah mate … he was ahead of his time for sure…. Be an interesting conversation me thinks

    I’ve owned several aircraft,all high wing for reasons ,the Taylorcraft I have now for that very reason on STOL and versatility… never really saw that in the piper low wing types…. Personal choice I reckon…
