Piper J3 Cub Balsa USA
The high wing has a rigid rear tailwheel. A total of 14,125 units this type have been made.
The flight characteristics may be described as "good-natured" as long as you do not fly too slowly. Like most Spornradflugzeuge you need when landing a degree of tact, since this type of aircraft landings at just under crosswind influence tends to break. The surface profile of the Piper J-3 is designed for low speeds. Therefore, the J-3, in contrast to PA-18 no flaps.
The engine was initially 29 kW (40 hp). This was later increased to up to 63 kW (85 hp). The airplane reached a cruising speed of about 75 mph (125 km / h). Only a few airworthy aircraft of this type have been preserved. A copy can still be found in the Aero Club Coburg / Brandensteinsebene with the registration D-ELUM.
The construction of Piper J-3 and L-4 were used as a model for numerous other aircraft. The company developed the Maule Air design to date consequently. With the planes of Cubcrafters, American Legend Cub and Aviat Aircraft Husky AVIAT modern derivative can be purchased new today. The RANS S-7 Courier and the Zlin Aviation Savage are current interpretations in the form of ultralight aircraft, the original idea of what WT Piper continues to provide an airplane for everyone. From this perspective, the J-3 is one of the most important aircraft in aviation history, because it played a similar role for the aviation industry as the Ford T model for the spread of Automobils.Quelle: Wikipedia / piper j-3
