  • Cuban Eight 'invented' by Len Povey at Miami Air Show in 1933 when he fell out of a loop, Jimmy Doolittle asked him "What the hell was that?" he replied " a Cuban Eight" flying a 800 HP Curtiss 'Cuban' Hawk

    My Father was the other half of the Cuban Airforce back then...

  • Hi,

    thanks for your comments! I'm glad to see, that the title of my clip caused you to remember your fathers aviation carreer. Did you follow in his footsteps?
