Guys and Gals,

As it ends up, the person that is doing the fabric on my Citabria wings is also restoring his 35th Cub and this one is an historic aircraft, the Miss Dairylea. It is a 1938 J-3 Cub that was used for an endurance record in 1938 flying for four and a half days!

Couldn't find any info except this

I'll get some photos the next time I'm up there to see Bob about my wings. He's a hell of a builder and I've been very lucky to have him accept my fabric work while he's also working on this latest Cub.

Bob also did this one, a 1941 J-3 Flitfire Cub
