DaV8or might have voted, but the post above is mine, another one of MoonySpace's "let's switch user name" incidences.


But yes, I voted.

Just voted. Kinda goofy. Pairing up totally dissimilar aircraft and saying pick one. I couldn't vote for the Mooney because I'm in the Southwest region.

Ya know, I love my Mooney.  As a matter of fact, I love ALL the Mooneys, but up against a J-3!  Now that's like competing against motherhood and apple pie.


As a matter of respect I'm not voting....Embarassed

with the Piper Cub getting 75% of the vote against the Pitts and the Mooney getting only 57% of the vote against the Husky it is going to be a tight contest.


Make sure you vote and support our great airplane.

I don't know if I can pick a Mooney over a J3. Why couldn't it be any other plane to choose against!?

Dave--


I suspect, like many of us, Mike chose the aircraft that suited his mission and is practical. Whenever I see a Cub, I respect it as a flying piece of history. But it doesn't fit my mission--it's too slow, has too short a range and won't carry enough people or my wife's luggage. Wink


It will be an interesting round of voting, to be sure. The "nostalgia effect" will be significant, even among those like me who have never flown a Cub.


But I'll be voting for my plane!

Oh no doubt I think a Mooney is a more suitable airplane to own. However, flying a cub is just fun! You're not going anywhere or doing anything. Just fly to fly. There's something really special about it. So although a Mooney is my kind of plane, it's really hard to say it is a favorite over a cub. Anything else and I wouldn't even hedge for a second. The cubs will get the vote from everyone else so I guess the least I can do is help Mooney lose this category with dignity =)

Vote vote vote. Just hit the Pick your Favorite airplane button after you vote and vote again!  According to AOPA we have an "uphill" battle to beat the Cub!
