Always liked this Tom Newsom print of Santa inspecting the J-3's propeller.  By the look of things, I hope he is as thorough with his weight and balance calculations and that he's upgraded that powerplant to the 65 h.p. version!  In the background, looks like Santa's six will be covered by a S.P.A.D. XIII this year.  Peace on Earth and good will towards men!

I think Santa swapped out the standard 72.5 inch diameter prop with a toy version. He's probably flying on magic Christmas Dust anyway, what was I thinking anyway.

Could be - close examination shows he has already already upgraded the original drum brakes to the SuperCub conversion kit for disc brakes.  Magic Christmas dust or not, he still has to stop on those icy roofs!
