Our planes

The Piper J3 ‘Cub’​

We believe that the Piper Cub is the perfect machine for tailwheel instruction. Used by several countries in various wartime efforts, they are the iconic vintage taildragger!​
​
With docile handling characteristics and great short field performance, they have all of the charm of a vintage warbird combined with some modern day luxuries. You really are flying a piece of wartime aviation history!​
