About this book
Piper Cub Era at Nicolet Airport: An American Phenomenon by Beverly M. Butler. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781879825017.
Rear cover notes: "Between the covers of this book, author Bev Butler has captured the upbeat mood and spirit of adventure of one of the most memorable periods in aviation history - The Piper Cub Era. That glorious age started in the 1930s when Cessnas, Stinsons, Aeroncas, Taylorcrafts, Luscombes, Fairchilds, Pipers and, in fact, ALL small airplanes were CALLED Piper Cubs. In this book you will read more than 260 true adventures about real pilots. Some of their antics were hilarious, some were down-right stupid and, unfortunately, some were tragic. Is this era over? As Bev knew it during the 50s, 60s, and 70s, perhaps. Then perhaps it does continue today in a slightly different form and we are just too blind to recognize it. One thing for sure - here, with words, Bev has captured that wonderful era as it existed then. Today, the EAA is striving to preserve this American Phenomenon in reality. Its the envy of aviators world-wide."
