Piper Cub Seaplanes @ Jack Brown's Seaplane Base - Winter Haven Airport KGIF

Please Read: My brother got the chance to fly one of these for an hour, so a couple weeks later we went down to Winter Haven from Orlando to the seaplane base. And..... This is what I caught! If you guys ever get to the area around Winter Haven, Florida, You really should go check out this Seaplane Base. Its called Jack Brown's Seaplane Base, They do seaplane ratings and lessons there. Its a very laid-back and relaxed place with a couple sheds and a hangar and a small office, you walk through a partially outdoor hallway and end out in a little dock, a great place for watching these great little planes. The Piper Cub is an old plane, built from 1937 to 1947. The first flight being in 1938. It carries and extremely simple cockpit. Pretty much a compass, airspeed indicator, and oil pressure, RPM, were the major instruments, and no radio! Very much a good old "stick and rudder" airplane, It was an excellent trainer and many pilots started off flying the Cub. Also these particular Cubs have no electric start, so It was really cool to see them being hand-propped! Thanks for watching!
