It really is! Beautiful bird.

Have y’all checked out the Zlin Savage Norden? This video at the 4 minute mark sums it up quite well. https://youtu.be/5Olmfj7O4Ec

Getting close to a shipping date. Jay @ Javron has been fantastic to work with if anyone is considering this route.

Wow, wow, wow. Love that red. which covering/paint system did you use? Being a newbie to fabric, I’m leaning towards PolyFiber with the less glossy finish for my Bearhawk, but that glossy red is truly stunning.

My 1940 J5 is gloss Pontiac red but not as sharp as yours. which red is that?

Oh man!

I sold my Cub four years ago. I love my Stearman. So why is it I keep looking at Cubs?

(That’s a rhetorical question, I damn well know the answer!)

Nice looking airplane, Joe. That red!

Hi Wayne,

Thank you! I used the Air Tech Ceconite fabric. I need to look up exact paint color for you as I’m not home. I’ll update with the name/color code later.

Just curiosity, has anyone had experience with the Wag Aero Cub kits? Just wondered if they were much lower quality or ????


I have a Trevor Rafferty build that is solid in every shape and form.

It is an unbelievable amount of fun, not as expensive as my previous plane to operate and I can work on anything I want as far as maintenance. Conditional Inspection this year cost me lunch and an airplane ride for my mechanic. :bud:
