I hope to finish my first J-3 soon.
And I am looking forward to the PA-18, another airplane with which I have a connection. The Maryland Civil Air Patrol Wing Parkville Squadron had a PA-18 in the 1950s and 60s. Between 1956 and 1958, I flew in the back seat many times from Quinn Airfield, Baltimore Harbor Field, and Baltimore Friendship Airport (now BWI) and occasionally handled the controls. After I left for college in 1958 I flew in the aircraft from time to time when I was home on vacation.
Piper PA-18-105 Special Super Cub N184T C/N 18-2298.
Again, no images that I have been able to find, but N-184T was overall aluminum with the N number in black on the fuselage sides and, I think, on the wing, and with the Civil Air Patrol emblem on the vertical tail surfaces.
The Parkville Squadron no longer exists, but I have sent a request to the Maryland CAP Wing Historian for information on and, I hope, images of N-184T.
