When I saw the title I expected to see a Piper with open door, preparatory to getting started up.
But no... :)
Marty you will have to start attaching a full description of your screens so we know which of your many sims we are looking at, addons, model etc!

As a matter of fact. Which Piper Cub is this?

Charl, I'm sorry for the lack of detail.
This screen is from the long-gone Flight sim world, and the Cub was one of the default aircraft.
The scenery is also default Alaska.
It's a shame it didn't make the grade, I think had potential, but I guess the market dictates what's good and what's not.

FSW's fate was largely the result of a hit job by some FS 'influencers' on Youtube who couldn't see what it was bringing to the hobby. Pretty dark chapter in the hobby really.

A lovely shot, but by the look of it, those floats would weigh more than the fuselage...what's the performance like? :plane:

'Propliner' is actually short for 'Proper airliner, with big rumbly radials'

Mike, I've never flown a Cub with floats .... however, that one handles as I would expect.
It's not fast of course, but its ...nice. Not sure about the dynamics associated with the water component.
