Hi Guys and gals, I have not visited here in a couple of years, but am back online again. We have taken over a company (defunct) some 4 years ago that used to produce a 75% scale of the Piper J3 Cub.The company used to be called Microwings Cubby with a manufacturing approval from the SACAA. Actually the original owners borrowed quite heavily from the Preceptor Pup in the design area. We took over this company and set about making an 80% copy of the Supercub. Front seat solo flown, and enclosed engine cowls, aerodynamic balance horns on the elevator etc etc. Many changes were incorporated including fiting of a Rotax 912 S engine. Should you wish to see what this LSA looks like , please visit our Facebook page Cubby Aircraft Factory.
Regards
Jean Crous.
