By the way, there was a lo-boy on a flat-bed trailer next to the farmallcub.com shed, all by its self. Who's was it? Had potential.

According to Guy Fay's Letter Series book, the change to eliminate the Circle Cub decal was July 28, 1947. Don't have any information on how long to took for that change to actually make it to the production floor. July '47 serial numbers were 1981-3080.

Anyway, it was a 47 Cub s/n 35XX (can't remember last two). Not a circle Cub.
I didn't think anyone passed through Earle, AR. Maybe a tower nearby?
August '47 numbers were 3081 - 4820. Looks like it didn't take too long to get the decals changed in production.

It's all good. Besides, last time I checked, our Oakwood to Ft. Wayne flights ran really full. You would had to have an advanced purchase ticket.
Thank goodness your services aren't needed in Hawaii. Tough drive, I hear.

I do work in Hawaii form time to time. I can't wait until they finish the bridge
It shouldn't take much longer with all that Interstate Highway money they get

They're having trouble staffing the toll booths.
