Richard, I know what you mean about room, you sort of wear a Super Cub. Not nearly as much room as a 12. The wife and I flew ours to Alaska a few years ago, 8500 mile round trip. We fly a Husky now, a bit more room than a Cub. A cased Parker fits in all of them, I thought I would throw that in, this being a Parker site and all. Bill

Husky's are nice... fast and a bit roomier than a Cub... but they've not really caught on with the hunting guides up here as much as Aviat hoped. You still just can not beat a Super Cub for performance. You just can't.

A light Supercub can't be beat for your mission in Alaska. It's low speed feel and handling will never be matched by a Husky. Having said that, the 20 mph advantage and Instrument capabilities of my Husky fit our ranch strip and trips to Houston, New Orleans, etc. My wife likes it's back seat better than the Supercub so I say " yes Mam".
