1/72 Pipers and other L-birds.

A beautiful set of Piper Cubs. Since I learned to fly in a Piper J-3 (N87967 C/N 18-2298) in 1959, it will always be a special airplane to me.

Nicely colored and with a fun registration, here is the English Piper L4 G-CUBY.

Looks like you are having fun with the J-3/L-4 series. Wonderfully clean builds at that scale.

Jan,
I love seeing your collection of Cubs! I am jealous of your building abilities! They make a very impressive display.

Please note that the aircraft that Don Boose learned to fly [N87967] is part of the DGA offerings

Thank you for your comments and your suggestion. N87967 is a good idea.

Now NC23413.
49 Special Edition ‘Flitfire’ Cubs were donated by Piper Aircraft and by Piper Dealers to help financially fund the British War effort. NC23413 is depicted to be the Flitfire from Texas. Some of these aircraft were raffled off. Some were used to raise money by barnstorming. NC23413 has been restored to flying status. 12 of the Flitfires are still listed in flying status with the FAA.


A DGA model.

I love the photos of NC23413 on the grass. They are all beautiful builds.
