poteroo Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 There are now several Cub 'clones' online with RAAus flying schools in Australia: the Cubcrafters Cub, see www.cubcrafters.com Has anyone flown one of them, and if so, would you care to comment on their performance aspects? happy days, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yenn Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Havn't seen the Cub blones but we had a C150 call at Rodds Bay a week ago. The second seat and control cplumn are removed. Makes a much more spacious cockpit, but would be good for carrying the camping gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLA82 Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 That Carbon Cub would have to be one of the best looking planes around IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rxbrumby Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Yes I have flown a cub crafters sport cub. They are fantastic, lots of room and very well built. There are two online at aldinga, They use them for tailwheel instruction, there very popular with the students and instructors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deskpilot Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I started my tail-wheel conversion at Aldinga and found them to be fantastic as well. Although I only had 3 hours up in them when my financial crisis hit, I would definitely go back to them if I could. Should you decide to buy one, get the balloon tyres as well, they make landings so soft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastmeg2 Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Looks very much like a Skyfox with VG's. Is that a valid comparison or are there big differences under the skin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
