I am trying to decide which kitplane to purchase. I'm looking at one of the "Piper Cub" variants. I know there are quite a few out there. My question is does anyone have any experience with some of these (good, bad or otherwise). I am currently looking at the following:
Cub Crafters - Carbon Cub EX
Wag-Aero's - Sport Trainer
Backcountry Super Cubs - Super Cub kit
If anyone has experience with other kits I would be interested to know. I have experience with aircraft design and certification but not with "hands-on" building experience. I have designed my own "custom" aircraft, but due to the cost of fabricating a scratch "one-of-a-kind", paired with this being my first home-built (I'm realistic, so I'm budgeting for parts that will have to be made twice) so for my first I'd like to go the kit route.
