A excellent edition to any aviator's collection. The iconic Cub is known for docile behavior and ease of flight. This beautiful example is no exception, easy to fly for beginners but advanced enough for the old hands. This fully meshed model comes to you modifiable with PSD templates available for custom paints or even your own arrangements. The aircraft seats two with both a group and guest mode as well as copilot controls. Working instruments, custom sounds, custom animations, and much much more!

One of the very few really interesting planes in SL.

Highly recommended for every pilot looking for some more realism in SL flying !

Well done Tank Kwaszes

Pick an airport with a nice long runway when you are learning with this. You'll want the space. This is the first aircraft I have owned in SL that has trim adjustment and you need to get the hang of it....quickly. I have owned half an air force in world and this is the ONLY aircraft with trim I have had! Once you get the hang of it, takes offs, landings and cruising get much better. Landing with flaps is a breeze once you get the hang of the trim. The stall warning will wail at you if you get "behind the curve". I read all the reviews and the NC before taking off and I am glad I did. Pop up the tail and she'll speed up quicker for lift off, just like in RL. Dropping those flaps? Get ready to redo the trim. They work WELL. Once you do your trim up for flaps, she handles great on approach. I can't wait to try STOL landing in this. The amount of accessories being made for this aircraft are phenomenal too. My only complaints are no HUD (keyboard command is fine, but HUD's sure can make life easier), no basic instruments for reference (REALLY miss those and there aren't any aftermarket ones on the market now) and no fuel consumption (realism). I waited 6 weeks to buy this plane as there are other, cheaper alternatives on the market now that are good, but I am glad I purchased this. I will enjoy it for a long time to come. Remember "Trim is Your Friend"!

I do love flying the plane...but.. its hard taking off and landing..the flaps are useless...put them down and it drops out of the air like a rock.... So you have to take off and land without using them which is just fine and easy.

The Most realistic flight system on SL
full star full star full star full star full star Posted August 04, 2017 by Patrix Beck

Yes, this plane simulate real flight, if you want to fly something easier go to others planes creators and let me fly my supercub, iam flying it in 2017-aug and it still the most realistic phisics of the SL.

Nose down a lil on the "take off" and the magic will happen.

On" landing", the only way to speed down is the flaps, maybe a lil adjust on it would be great.

I have many planes on the grid but this one is amazing, the only one i can use the Ruders on Mouselook. Want to know if your plane has a real flight script? Raise the plane nose and check the airspeed, if it decrease its a plane if not, its a simple sl vehicle.

Thank you and please, make more!!

Nice, but...

Generally a nice aircraft, which crosses sims well but, Often it will not gain speed along a runway, even at 100% throttle it will just crawl along the strip, meaning you have to turn around and get back to the other end quite often. There is very little in the way of operating instructions with this aircraft either, so you'll need to learn how it likes to be flown by yourself. There is also no floating text display or HUD to inform you of altitude, pitch, yaw, heading, or even throttle setting, so your eyes will be all over the screen from your mini map, to your info bar (for altitude) and chat window. Chat commands don't always work 100% of the time either, so you'll be coming in for a landing, activate flaps, and then abort your landing because the flaps didn't lower.
If you can put up with the issues of this aircraft, and maybe find yourself a aviation HUD or hover text script to drop in, then I'd recommend it, if you just want a fun plane that's easy to fly and hassle free, it may be worth looking elsewhere first.

Superior build and great flying qualities. Realistic and yet not difficult for someone familiar with SL flying.

It handles in a docile manner as would be realistic in this plane. Great quality and fair price. This is one on my favorites out of approximately 50 aircraft.
