Homecoming Queen by Burt Mader

A 1946 J-3 enters downwind for runway 27 at "home"- W.T. Piper Memorial Airport, in Lock Haven, PA. where most Cubs were built. Veterans of the annual fly-in called "Sentimental Journey to Cub Haven" will recognize elements of the landscape: the flood-prone Susquehanna River, the new dike construction (May '93 status) and the old Piper plant, all lying between the city of Lock Haven and the none-too-distant ridge which hunches up, often hidden in the near total obscurity of fog or clouds.
