Piper J-3 'Cub'

The "Cub" is one of the most popular, influential and enduring light aircraft ever produced. Its basic design sired a large family of light planes. Introduced in 1938, it was low-cost, easy and economical to fly, and could operate from short, unimproved airfields. With a price of $1,325, the Cub quickly became a top seller in the private plane market.
