Small one engine airplanes have been around for over a hundred years now, and some models have become more popular than others. Reliability is a must when it comes to airplanes, and the Piper Cub have shown its reliability for seven or eight decades now. It's a classic airplane that's still in widespread use all over the world, and it's treasured for it's STOL (Short Take Off and Landing) capabilities. 



The Piper J-3 Cub is a simple, small and light aircraft that was produced from 1937 to 1947 by Piper Aircraft. It was to become one of the most popular light airplanes in aviation history. Modern versions are produced by Cub Crafters (Washington) and American Legend Aircraft (Texas).
