10 years ago! I've been there in 2012 the year before this video and saw that too. I remember seeing it land on the bridge. This years fly in is going on right now! I saw the planes at the fly in last year in 2022 and 2021 too.
Hi rtrfan Yes, I started flight training on the airport in Aug. 2010, and attended Sentimental Journey, for a couple years before I filmed this video. I also made another video you can see here: ruclips.net/video/ub-3-O0coq8/видео.html It did not work out as well filming it since some of it is blurry. I also went up this week for a couple of days, but the weather sure has put a damper on the attendance this year! I am glad that you enjoyed the video!!
I had the good fortune to see Stan Segalla perform his Flying Farmer act at Old Rhinebeck Aerodome about 20+ years ago. These acts are always great fun and really shows off the J-3's abilities!!!! Great flying in this one!! Thank you for sharing this!!!
The great thing of this, is that it takes place at my home airport over a four day fly in event, and Greg and his crew stay afterwards and sign free posters etc and answer questions. They are truly a class act!! Thanks Phillip for your kind words. I am glad you enjoyed it.
Hey Bob, thanks for your comment. He always does a great job and has been coming to Lockhaven Pennsylvania for the fly in every year held on the airport about the third week in June. If you are ever in the area, be sure to stop by.
Great bit of flying. I used to fly with my dad in a Piper Cub. It was so fun. I really miss those days!! Does anyone remember Grace 'the Ace' Page? She used to do airshows like this years ago. Met her when I was in high school in Zellwood, FL.
Consider yourself fortunate. I have never been up in a Piper Cub yet, even with as much as I am around them, and the fact that Piper Memorial is my home airport! They do look like it would be fun though.
I have seen them in person at airshows several times. I am a pilot, so I appreciate the talent it takes to do the antics they do to make it "appear" as though he doesn't know how to fly! :)
They are just as nice in person as they appear to be as well!! I also understand that Craig has an aerobatic flight school which I thought would be great to learn some day.
@@EHV8R Aerobatics is an addictive sport! All it takes is $money$! I am an old retired guy now, but I am still like a little kid around planes. I love airshows!
My Uncle Bob McComb did this same type act as Uncle Fud. He would be sweeping the apron and tell them to move this airplane or he would move it himself. He accidentally took off and the fun started. At one point, he was in slow flight low over the runway and you could see him sitting backwards while he flew. He was an Army/Air Force flight instructor during WW2.
There are a few pilots that have similar acts and these are ALL exceptional pilots, with amazing skill! Craig comes to KLHV during the Sentimental Journey fly in in June for several years, and he is a great guy to get to know, and not just a stand offish performer. Much like your uncle I am sure! Thanks for taking the time for your comments!!
@@EHV8R thanks, my uncle did his act in the fifties and sixties. He is mentioned in the book “ They Call Me Mr Airshow” your video reminded me of him. Thank you for posting the video and bringing back the memories! You are a kind man.
I have always wanted to go for a ride in a cub, but even with my home airport being the place they used to build Cubs, in 10 years of flying, I still have yet to go for a flight.
This video takes place on the William T Piper Memorial airport in Lock Haven Pa. (KLHV) This is the location where the Piper Cubs were built for many years. At one end of the field is the Piper Memorial Museum, and if you ever get to fly here, be sure to visit the museum, it is worth the flight!
In 1979 I soloed in a J3 Cub, built 9 years before I was born. What a joy the cub is/was to fly. It isn't the fastest or sexiest, and certainly not over-powered at all, but it has taught millions and continues to thrill to this day. I should have bought one years ago.
Cảm ơn những lời tốt đẹp của bạn và tôi rất vui vì bạn thích xem video của tôi! Xin Chúa ban bình an và hạnh phúc cho bạn! Thank you for your kind words and I am glad you enjoyed watching my video! God bless you with peace and happiness!
My dad was a WW2 pilot. As a kid, my earliest memories were doing things with him. One of my favorite memories is flying under the thousand Island bridge at Alexandria Bay, NY. We had an old Cub built before the war. I know the announcer was terrible and the guy makes the people living in rural America look bad but if you notice, no women or minorities were offended so I guess it is ok as long as you make fun of white men.
The announcer was just reading the script that the pilot and his team gave him to read! But I guess if Johnny Carson told a bad joke they blame him instead of his writers.
They certainly are an entertaining show with skill and daring. I also have a couple other videos from previous shows. Here is another link ruclips.net/video/b6pR2swZIBY/видео.html
Absolutely beautiful, I must now acquire my sport license and a cub!!! My wife's going to be really pissed off when I step up from old military trucks to old airplanes.
I started out with getting a sport license just so I could learn to fly, and there weren't any private pilot flight schools around. Then I did get my private pilot license and never regretted one day of being able to fly!! Once you take your wife flying.... she will be glad you stepped up to airplanes!!
@@EHV8R yeah I've had the airplane bug for a long time, worked on a lot of world war II stuff and flown in it and yes a cub and absolutely loved it! Getting a sport license and acquiring a cub is very financially doable.
@@ericwilson8144 Do you know of a light sport flight school near you? There are not very many around, here at KLHV, and KLNS that I know of, and some of them charge almost as much as getting your PPL.
That is the option for anyone watching this video, to fast forward to any spot, and turn up or down the audio. It would be like self editing, instead of having me decide what you should see and not see, and hear and not hear.

@@jackwillis5562 Hi Jack, almost all piper cubs are painted that same yellow color. This video takes place at the place where most of them were built at Lock Haven PA. KLHV.

At Scot AF base airshow in 1960's as a kid - I saw a guy flying a Piper Cub doing comedy skits. He at one point flew the plane SIDEWAYS! To this day I still haven't figured out how he did that!
Hello Ray, well, I would almost feel like a magician giving away the secrets to magic, but the SPOILER ALERT! truth is that it is an exaggerated form of something every pilot learns which is to do what is called "A Slip" which is accomplished by "cross controlling" the airplane using opposite rudder and aileron used mostly to slow down the forward ground speed of the plane on approach if you are too high and fast to land. Flying the plane "sideways" presents more of the broadside of the airplane into the wind. (sorry about the spoiler alert)
Back in the 60's I was lucky enough to see Captain Dick Schram, aka "The Flying Professor", do his hilarious act in a Cub. He was a Naval Reservist and flew airshows all over the country, always in a locally borrowed Cub. He would come out in a top hat and tails with a huge book marked "How To Fly". After a pilot got out of a Cub he had started and had idling "just to warm up" according to the announcer, he climbed in and started his act. He was unfortunately killed during his act in the late 60's while his son, another Naval Aviator, was announcing the show.
Thanks for your comment! I have only seen other videos of a pilot doing stunts like this, but this is one of the many times I have seen Greg Koontz perform here at KLHV Lock Haven Pa. I also have a couple other videos of his stunts on this channel.if you are interested
The late great Art Scholl did an air show gag where he walks onto the field as a drunken bum and steals a Piper Cub and takes off. He then flew it mostly about four feet off the ground sort of weaving around some and making flat turns with the wings level. Quite funny to see. And there was some fairly small structure on the other side of the runway and at that near zero altitude he flies around it and of course disappears behind it briefly. A very odd and funny thing to see.
I have seen some similar acts on TV as well. It certainly is a great skill to fly to look like you don't know how to fly! In recent years Craig's act is restricted to over the airport because of insurance costs.
Yes, that is right. They drive the truck down the runway, and when the airspeed is fast enough he simply pulls back on the yoke and flies off. I have a short video of that too.
Saw this in Burlington Vermont one time. When he came back from behind a tree line he was dragging a clothesline full of laundry behind him. The pilot was a farmer needing to get back home to milk the cows.
I've seen him at Moody AFB in Valdosta, GA, and he was great. What skill! Hilarious! Parts of the airplane fell off in mid flight, what looked like the flaps lol.
Auf unserem C H A N N E L gibt es eine Piper J-3 als riesiges Modellflugzeug. Einfach einmal vorbeischauen und ein A B O hinterlassen, wenn es gefällt.
Done many a loop in them thangs! There was a Mr. Mallette (can't recall his first name for some reason; I believe his son was Ray... or maybe that was HIS name) from Southern Alabama who did a good show with them; World's Smallest Airport, etc. I believe it ended when his buddy was piloting while Mallette climbed down a rope ladder, had a heart attack, and fell.
@@lordofthewoods It is easy to recover from a stall by lowering the angle of attack and adding power. An uncoordinated stall spin close to the ground is a different story of course.
1975, I saw a guy in a Cub like this called Colonel Blunderbird. He sat still and lifted the tail off the ground. At about 500 feet he pulled a cable and the right aileron fell off. He flew by and scraped the left wing tip, flew up and half of the elevator flew off, then rolled down the strip on one wheel. The guy was pretty fantastic. Ever heard of him?
GereDJ2 I’m not sure if this is the same guy or not but the performance looks similar with the aileron coming off and going down the runway on one wheel. ruclips.net/video/6dDsyWzbg-o/видео.html
Yes, Bernard, he is quite the showman, and pilot. He is also a really great guy personally! They have posters that they sign and give away for free after the show. He has come to KLHV for several years, and usually stays and hangs out with everyone for a few days!
Check out this link for your answer...... ruclips.net/video/7TQhJKQzqgE/видео.html (which is that the truck drives down the runway with the plane until it goes fast enough that the plane lifts off and flies on it's own. )
Some cubs were built as trainer aircraft for the military during World War II. During the war however the North American AT6 Texan seemed to be the trainer that the U.S. military chose until the t-28 Trojan became a new trainer aircraft to replace some of the at6 Texans.
+michael quinn its called a piper cub j-3 it started production as the taylor j-2 and small companys still make variants today its one of the most wide spread and succesfull light aircraft in history and is offen called the ford model t of aircraft
Back in the 1960s I attended an air show in Reading Pennsylvania. I saw this exact scenario with a "clip-wing" Piper but the pilot was killed when he tried to loop too close to the ground. I don't remember the pilot's name.
The insurance company would not allow this pilot to fly low over the road behind the trees anymore. He has had to tone down his act for the fly ins now.
You have to be GOOD to fly that BAD ! Amazing landing.....how in the world does the plane stay on the platform once it touches down ? What keeps it from rolling off?
There are a couple of wheel ruts in the platform that he rolls into after he lands. Here is a video of him getting the plane off the truck... ruclips.net/video/7TQhJKQzqgE/видео.html
What may have been lacking in humor was more than made up for in flying skill. Non pilots don't appreciate the skill it takes to do the antics they do.
@@johnrandall8949 Maybe I misunderstood your comment, when you say hot shot model are you talking about a remote control model airplane? I am a pilot as well, and don't fly remote control model airplanes, and I could not fly those aerobatics Greg does.
One of my FAVORITE aircrafts from the 1940's. Great flying job. !!😃😂😉 !! Love TO ALL VETERAN PILOTS ! SP -5 Frederick H.Fabian,Jr Black Cats of Phu Loi RVN. 213th ASHC 1St Avn Bgde.
wtf can a piper cub support G forces as an 5 generation fighter? Maybe light aircrafts do not generate structural stress? When the most heavy are the balls of the pilot everything is clear.
Every airplane has a max and min G-force load, and a maneuvering speed for those G-forces. Most of the stunt flying seen here was managing the energy of the airplane with not a lot of G's exerted.
Great Video Keith! I've seen him fly many times and he's such a great J-3 Pilot! But I've got to say...the announcer sucks. Lol. He could have done better with trying to fool the audience. Lol. They will be at the airshow in Rome Ga. this weekend alone with the Thunderbirds and Patty Wagstaff and a lot more great pilots. God bless!
Chad Cole This was his second year performing at Lock Haven PA for the annual Sentimental Journey Piper fly in week. I also have a video posted of his first performance too if you want to check it out.
It seems like I have seen this 100 times in the last 50 years. It was a lot better when I was a kid because I didn't realize how bad an actor the announcer is.
Long 8+ minutes of unamusing, totally unbelievable lead-in that could easily be cut to 2 min. or less, since everyone knows what's going to happen anyway. The show actually starts at 9 minutes.

Dean is a Great Pilot ... Bill Barber used to do a truck top landing in his clipped wing cub at Airshows across the Midwest
So to get the aircraft off the truck and back on the ground, do they fly it back off the truck first?
Yes, that is right. They drive the truck down the runway, and when the airspeed is fast enough he simply pulls back on the yoke and flies off. I have a short video of that too.
Lets just hope the truck dont get a blow out while trying to gain speed with the plane on it lol..that wuddnt turn out too good i think 👍😉

I am far from rich. I fly small planes. It can be done if you get beyond your blind jealousy, and EARN it.
How do they get the plane off the truck, big crane?
Check out this link for your answer...... ruclips.net/video/7TQhJKQzqgE/видео.html (which is that the truck drives down the runway with the plane until it goes fast enough that the plane lifts off and flies on it's own. )
Does anyone recall the Flying Professor?
I think I heard of him years ago, but only a vague recall.
Bob Lyjak if I remember correctly. He was from the University of Michigan.
very amazing
Some cubs were built as trainer aircraft for the military during World War II. During the war however the North American AT6 Texan seemed to be the trainer that the U.S. military chose until the t-28 Trojan became a new trainer aircraft to replace some of the at6 Texans.
Ths went oooonnnn.... and ooonnn.... and oooonnnn. Slightly humerous about twenty years ago.
Some humor is timeless! ha.
Have seen this act several times. This is the very worst narration I have heard.
Oh, I don't think it is so bad!
Pat T You mean it could be worse?
I agree. The humor of this act comes mostly from the narration.
The flying was spectacular though!
Together with a clueless camera operator.

Compared to Jim Mynning and Danny Clisham it's pretty lame.
RIP Jim😥
A pilot from Plattsburgh NY in the early 70's had this same act. Pickup and all
I think there are a few pilots around that do this kind of act.
wait this looks like the place i saw it what year was this made?
+michael quinn its called a piper cub j-3 it started production as the taylor j-2 and small companys still make variants today its one of the most wide spread and succesfull light aircraft in history and is offen called the ford model t of aircraft
If it belongs to Dan, why does it say Greg on the side?
Ummm, maybe because it is not a "real" scenario???
You've got to be really good to make iy look like you don't have a clue.
The amount of skill and training involved is what makes it so entertaining!
I've met a few pilots who made it look like they didn't have a clue and then it turned out they didn't
@ Of course, they are usually not getting paid for that type of clueless flying.
@@EHV8R
Tragically I know a few who are one got killed doing it recently
Charlie Kulp ruled in his time. My poppa does a perfect loop in his cub special.
Have you flown with him in his cub special? That would be great!
Keith McAndrew Never so lucky. My dad was pretty respectable in his day. I got my ticket in dad's PA-11.
Great job. Thank
Nice landing!
It sure is a crowd please'r! The conditions have to be right to put it on the truck. He does make it look easy.
I enjoyed watching him fiy very good
Back in the 1960s I attended an air show in Reading Pennsylvania. I saw this exact scenario with a "clip-wing" Piper but the pilot was killed when he tried to loop too close to the ground. I don't remember the pilot's name.
The insurance company would not allow this pilot to fly low over the road behind the trees anymore. He has had to tone down his act for the fly ins now.
A Cub with a starter motor?
Yep, pretty cool.
I guess even a big boy can fly a light sport. That's good news for me as I'm no midget and I would love to get my hands on a luscombe.
If you are serious about a Luscombe, there is a pilot at my home airport (KLHV) that was selling his. Contact the airport for more information.
$2.00 mic foam.would do wonders.
PIPER CUB 1963 Nov 22nd Dallas
Looks a lot like Charlie Kulp's old 'flying farmer' routine at the Flying Circus in Bealeton Va. years ago.
Similar types of flying stunts and very entertaining.
Hi, great show, one query, the one on the video is equipped with a Continental A-65? Regards.
LOVE IT MAN. AN RCR
It was fun to watch in person, and I am glad I could share it
You have to be GOOD to fly that BAD !
Amazing landing.....how in the world does the plane stay on the platform once it touches down ? What keeps it from rolling off?
There are a couple of wheel ruts in the platform that he rolls into after he lands. Here is a video of him getting the plane off the truck... ruclips.net/video/7TQhJKQzqgE/видео.html
I somehow missed the funny part.
Maybe you should turn the sound up and play it again? LOL
What may have been lacking in humor was more than made up for in flying skill. Non pilots don't appreciate the skill it takes to do the antics they do.
Wow wow Wow very very talented pilot
I was flying like that before I became a pilot!
Thats impressive.
I have seen the act many times, and I agree, it is impressive every time!!
The ghost of Art Scholl. RIP
Too bad that the camera operator failed to show the best part of the show.....the touchdown!
Too bad you did not watch the video to the end!
"Wait a second!? What's Grandpa doing with that gun?"
Looks like he blew the tire off the plane!! Yikes!!!
I was in a new one of those in the 50s, if i remember right.
As a engineer it amazes me how mush stress five eights I. D. Tubing with seven eighths O.D. can take.
It amazes me still that cruise ships float and 747s get off the ground!
I think the Draco is built even lighter 🤯
20:10 And that, folks, is how you load an airplane!!
Now the trick is getting it off the top of the truck without tearing something up haha
@@thereaper2762 Not really....just get the truck moving at 65 mph down the runway and the plane will lift off!!!!
This is how most hot-shot model fliers do it all the time.
Of course it is a little harder flying it in person for real, rather than just a hot shot model
@@EHV8R ....having done both I can safely say that flying 'in person' is a hell of a lot easier than flying a hotshot model.
@@johnrandall8949 Maybe I misunderstood your comment, when you say hot shot model are you talking about a remote control model airplane? I am a pilot as well, and don't fly remote control model airplanes, and I could not fly those aerobatics Greg does.
@@EHV8R Yes I was referring to rc models. They're not an easy thing to master. Epecially those that have high performance.
Yeller!!😁😄😄
One of my FAVORITE aircrafts from the 1940's.
Great flying job. !!😃😂😉 !! Love TO ALL VETERAN PILOTS !

funny and entertaining
wtf can a piper cub support G forces as an 5 generation fighter? Maybe light aircrafts do not generate structural stress? When the most heavy are the balls of the pilot everything is clear.
Every airplane has a max and min G-force load, and a maneuvering speed for those G-forces. Most of the stunt flying seen here was managing the energy of the airplane with not a lot of G's exerted.
False advertising, they call it a comedy act.
Oh does that mean it is a "Serious Act?"
Keith McAndrew Wait, it wasn’t real? Those guys aren’t really hillbillies? You sure had me fooled. 😳
Cheesey!
le départ à été laborieux!!!!!
the dude is a good pilot, lol
The dude sure is!! ha.
Great Video Keith! I've seen him fly many times and he's such a great J-3 Pilot! But I've got to say...the announcer sucks. Lol. He could have done better with trying to fool the audience. Lol. They will be at the airshow in Rome Ga. this weekend alone with the Thunderbirds and Patty Wagstaff and a lot more great pilots.
God bless!
Chad Cole This was his second year performing at Lock Haven PA for the annual Sentimental Journey Piper fly in week. I also have a video posted of his first performance too if you want to check it out.
Awesome! Thanks for you reply! I'll check that out! God bless ya! I have a 1946 J-3 my self. 😃👍
I was at this same event it wasfunny
I don't remember the airplane having a starter.
Some do not, others added a starter
Gotta be Genius or Crazy!
How about a crazy genius?? Or at least very skilled for sure!!
It seems like I have seen this 100 times in the last 50 years. It was a lot better when I was a kid because I didn't realize how bad an actor the announcer is.
It is supposed to be better when you were a kid. You were watching with a kids eyes and wonder and joy!!
GENIAL Y LYKE
beautiful aircraft, terrible video..
Everyone's a critic! LOL.
Gail Raby simply has no patience, that's all. It's all part of the suspense but he wants FULLTIME XTREME NOW!!!!

This video proves the old quote; dying is easy, comedy is Hard...
Long 8+ minutes of unamusing, totally unbelievable lead-in that could easily be cut to 2 min. or less, since everyone knows what's going to happen anyway. The show actually starts at 9 minutes.
Your a critic.. you can't just enjoy anything can you?
Wow can see why these planes so popular, stable or what
Yes, these planes were used as trainers for pilots during WWII. And are still a popular plane to fly!

Great act by Greg Koontz, I've seen it before... But that announcer was so basis against the southern stereo type... It was a little upsetting.
Keith McAndrew I am sure there was a bit of ad-libbing
Что он раскачивает самолет а нас учили не фамилярничать не только в воздухе но и на земле !
THIS one was YELLER!!!! Bwahahahahahahahahahah!!!!!
Weird helicopter...
