Orange Monster Maule/Cub

Post by Flybrian1950 »

Bill/Wup
I was expecting to see the Orange Beast at the Joseph Fly-In, only to learn it was down in SW Idaho for some minor changes. Some fresh pictures with the big two blade prop would be great. Too bad it wasn't able to make the trip to New Holstein and Oskosh.

I was long contemplating this solution to get rid of the flap cable in the extended baggage, but couldn't come up with a solution that would kill the pilot or the passenger, or eventually both, in case of a crash.

The flap cable has been rearranged and moved back one bulkhead, I kinda like the CC handle set up but it would get in the way

Your personal page, or is Backcountry Connection your FB page? There's a FB group with that name, but it wasn't clear what it was other than an Copper Center, Alaska Community. Was hesitating to "friend" you personally if there's a business page you'd prefer we monitor.

Looking forward to reading more!
