The Cub was "the plane that can almost kill you." The same is true of
most ultralights. I have a friend who once flew into a tree, climbed
down, got a chainsaw, cut the tree down, and flew the ultralight home.

I felt a bit guilty about this post. I should have added that he also
got some medical attention, between the climbing down and the
chainsawyering. When he told me the story he still had a bandage
across his nose.

Still, he fared better than if he had pulled the same trick in a
Bonanza.

all the best -- Dan Ford
