About the Piper Super Cub

The Piper Super Cub (PA-18) is the legendary backcountry taildragger — a two-seat, tube-and- fabric short-takeoff-and-landing aircraft that has been the gold standard for bush flying since 1949. Powered by Lycoming O-320 or larger engines depending on variant and STC, the Super Cub takes off and lands in a few hundred feet, operates on bush wheels, tundra tires, floats or skis, and goes almost anywhere a small aircraft can reach. With a small but devoted community and a thriving aftermarket of STCs (engine upgrades, vortex generators, extended baggage), the Super Cub remains in demand and holds value remarkably well — including modern Cubcrafters and similar clones.
