    Until those guys do the Millennium Falcon takeoff, I won't be impressed. :)

    What's the stall speed on a Super Cub 40 indicated?

    I can do that. I can even make it all pitchy on takeoff. I can also power bounce and rock it forward really hard on the landing.

    With flaps and the STOL kit? About 25 mph. And I do mean miles, not knots.

    The straight wing J3's with no flaps stall in the 30-35 mph range.
