May 12, 2011 — It’s been about a year since we last wrote about
pilot Ed Doyle, EAA 474018, of Manhattan, Kansas, competitor in the
annual Valdez Fly-In and Air Show STOL competition each May in
Valdez, Alaska. Doyle, who flew the heavily modified experimental
Super Cub Cuzoom owned by Mike Olson, of Yakima, Washington, won the
wide-open alternate bush plane category in last weekend’s annual event.

In a competition where less is more, *Doyle’s total takeoff and
landing distance was a mere 78 feet. That’s 43 feet for the takeoff
and 35 feet for the landing* – best of the bunch
