The Cubby is 75% of the original J-3 Piper cub. With
modern materials and technology the performance has been vastly improved.
The purchase price is low and operational costs are kept to a minimum due
to the use of automotive fuel as apposed to
AVGAS. The Cubby can be registered as a three axis micro-light or a non type certified light aircraft. The Cubby is
available in tri-gear or tail dragger. The price is dependable on the
choice of engine. The option to have the Cubby interchangeable between
tri-gear and tail dragger is also available on request as an option.
With the cooperation and valuable input from the CAA, the
factory is now up to CAA standards. The non type
certified process of +- a year and capital input is now just about done.
All upgrade and changes requested by CAA has been done and communicated
to all Cubby owners. All correspondence of changes and upgrades are
posted to Cubby owners with a newsletter.
Applications:
There are already 26 flying in SA and 3 on order. The cubby is
available in kit form, fast built and basic kit.
The Cubby is available as ready to fly or fully built but without engine,
radio and instruments.
