Since it WAS a Cub, it made the J-3 Owners' website big time; here's the guilty party with her terrorist mount: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2011/08/05/MNO31KK09H.DTL.

I must surmise from her comments about why the F-16s were hawking her, that 1) She was at an altitude that required oxygen because only a certain type of hypoxia would lead to such a conclusion on her part and 2) If she HAD been flying a Kitfox, the Vipers would have stuck around longer!
