Taxiing is easy enough, but it takes a bit of practice before your heels stop slipping off the little brake pedals that rise, mushroom-like, from the cockpit floor. You must swing from side to side to see around the engine.
Check the switches and carb heat, and, if you're solo, reach a long, long way forward from the back seat to reset the altimeter. Taxiing in a circle is the only way to ensure there is nobody about to land. The takeoff is the first surprise. You leave the ground almost before you've got the throttle fully open. After that you creep upward at barely fpm, with 55 mph and 2, rpm on the dials. Several of those sixty five horses seem to be expended in sheer noise. From the rear seat the visibility is not of the best. I guess the sky wasn't so crowded back in Watch the oil temperature; on a hot day it may be nudging the limit by the time you reach circuit height. Full bore gives about 87 mph and a hot cooking smell from the engine. A realistic cruise is 75 mph at 2, rpm. With any sort of breeze on your nose the cars on the thruway will leave you behind.
The aileron drag is remarkable. It's a blessing that a rudder is good and powerful. It's when you try slow flight that the Cub begins really to impress you. Power off, the stall comes up at about 35 mph, gentle, with a slight left wing drop if you keep the stick hard back. The nose falls away before the wing, so that you tend to be picking up speed again before the wing really has much chance to go down. The center-of-pressure travel must be considerable. Fierce and prolonged back pressure on the stick is required to reach the stall, and if you release the stick at the moment of stall, the ship will pitch sixty degrees nose down. The Cub Mach 0. Stalls with power on in turns are even more impressive. Try a climbing turn, with full power, top rudder, and the airspeed dropping. First a good warning buffet-and just about nothing else happens.
The airspeed disappears into that region of uncertainty at the bottom of the dial, but she will not snap on you. If you really force it and go on forcing it, she may very gently shudder into level flight. What a marvelously safe airplane for military observation purposes the Cub must have been! Its stalling characteristics must be as safe as any airplane ever made. The approach in a Cub is best done at higher-than-necessary speed. There is no aerodynamic reason for th is, just the fact that if you try gliding in at the Cub's natural speed you are likely to have other airplanes weaving and dodging and backing up and overshooting behind you. You can't see very much straight ahead if you're in the back seat.
A crosswind helps. You can then peer around the side of the nose. If you are going to side-slip in, close the window first, or you will arrive in a billowing cloud of cockpit dust and papers. And you know what they say: If you can land a Cub smoothly, you can land anything. You can aerobat the Cub. The Cub I flew was an old one with wooden spars, and I was asked not to do more than spins and wing overs in case the wood had become a little creaky with age. That big door makes the Cub series probably the best-ever light plane for air-to air photography. That huge window-door gives you a magnificent field of view, with only the wing strut to get in the way, and more often than not, it is the wing strut that makes the picture. What does it cost to operate a J-3? Notice that no depreciation is included. The airplane is simply no longer depreciating. It may even be appreciating. Undoubtedly more people learned to fly in this airplane than any other single type.
Flying schools found you couldn't break them. And repairs were easy to make. The airplane is a little tricky to land-it porpoises. It does put the student on his guard. The oddest thing about the Cub is how heavy the controls are. You might almost be flying a bomber instead of the lightest of light planes. It just doesn't like being rolled. There's really been no effort made to fair the intersections of any of the various parts. It's not the wing. A great many of us in this company have a great love and respect for that wing. It put us in business. And it's still used on the Aztec. I think that airfoil was a happy choice.
And the future of the Super Cub? Piper was still at the height of its success with the horse J-3 Cub when it began developing bigger and better things out of the basic Cub airframe. First came the J-4, the side-by-side Cub-a smooth airplane, if you can find one. Not many more than a hundred are still flying. Then the J-5 Cruiser, a fat Cub with seats for three, cruising 85 mph on 75 hp, which is not half bad. Those were the days just before Pearl Harbor, and by peacetime the Cruiser had become the J-5C Super Cruiser, with hp, an electrical system, and redesigned landing gear. About this time, Piper abandoned the J nomenclature and started the PA series; the Super Cruiser is also known as the PA The last of the Cruisers was the PA Family Cruiser, with seats for four, hp, and a devastating mph cruise.
The Super Cruiser is far more abundant than its two brothers, for upward of a thousand Supers are still active, while less than a hundred PA's and maybe two hundred horse J-5's are still about. The Cruiser made its tiny mark on history, too, for in two PA's flew around the world, their two pilots spending four months battling headwinds, ice, desert heat, and every possible kind of foul-up. But they proved the superior dependability of the Piper airframes. The worst mechanical problem in five hundred hours of flying thirty percent over gross was a cracked tail wheel. If you think the Cub is a real fun airplane, you should try the Super Cub, while you've still got a chance. For a start, you fly it solo from the front rather than the rear seat, which is a big improvement. You run it up to full power against the brakes, lift the tail on the slipstream, let go of the brakes, lurch forward a few yards, lower full flap, and haul back viciously on the stick. You get airborne.
You can climb a Super Cub at 1, f pm. You can climb at an angle of forty five degrees to the horizontal. In a wind you can fly slowly backward relative to the ground. You can reach well over 20, feet quite quickly, and with the arctic heater Piper installs, you can gently roast yourself at the same time. You can land in almost as short a distance as needed for takeoff, but not quite, so that you can be sure of getting out of any field you've gotten into. The technique is to approach with full flaps, a little power, and the airspeed way off the bottom of the dial. At the moment of touchdown, cut the power, raise the flaps, and stand on the brakes.
With practice you can achieve a most impressively sudden arrival. We once paced out what a real expert could achieve in the way of a short landing run. Against a reasonable breeze it was thirty-seven yards. But have a care, for the Super Cub is heavier than the old J-3, and it can stall on you. The load you could carry for the horsepower has always been one of the Cub's notable qualities. The early ones with only 37 hp would take pounds disposable load; with 50 hp, pounds; with 65 hp, pounds. The big Super Cub will carry pounds. Nor is it very critical, for you can get away with fair overloads, and the allowable center of gravity range is generous. In consequence, all the Cub series have always been favorites for any kind of flying job, be it at work, air shows, endurance flights, or mountain landings.
Truly, a universal airplane. Let the late Mr. Piper have the last word in this story, about his old partner C. He went away and designed the Taylorcraft. It wasn't really anything like the Cub: It had side by-side seats and a very different airfoil. Taylor moved to Alliance, Ohio, and set up the Taylorcraft Aviation Corporation to build his new bird. At first it had a hp Continental, and a cruising speed of less than 90 mph, but soon the Taylorcraft moved up to 65 hp-Lycoming, Franklin, or Continental, according to the customer's choice, though by far the largest number chose the Continental. The owner of one Taylorcraft acquired his bird, a B Continental-powered model, as a wreck from someone's chicken coop. He then rebuilt it himself. Introducing us to his machine, he said, "I think it's an excellent airplane.
It's efficient. You can cruise nicely at 2, rpm, where the engine's real smooth, and you're making 90 to 95 mph. And we've flown some five hundred hours in it. It's a little faster, perhaps a little more maneuverable than a J It's a nice cross-country airplane. I've only got one wing tank in mine, but I've heard they used to have four, as well as a fuselage tank. We climbed aboard and it's cozy inside. Don't take anyone with sharp elbows into a T'craft. The airplane has enormous round control wheels, like something out of a 's cloth bomber. How cockpit styles have changed! The airplane's owner has painted a yellow mark on his wheels to show where top dead center lies.
And he shows us the trim lever, under his seat, and makes us open the door to peer back and see the trim tab, a separate vane mounted underneath the stabilizer. Fired up, we bounce and hop across the stones to the takeoff point, which at Old Rhinebeck in this wind is at one side of a big pit. You hurtle down one side of the pit, and stagger up the other, waiting for the right combination of bump and gust to get airborne. In the T'craft this moment seems to come very smartly, for the takeoff is quite short. We climb out indicating 1, fpm, which means the VSI is lying in its teeth, bu t even so, the climb-out is right smart.
At 2, feet we level off. It's a real wintry day, and while the cabin heat is good around the feet there's a Force Eight gale coming in the door onto your face. Visibility is better than expected, except in a turn. Stability in pitch is good, but the T'craft lacks positive stability in yaw. Sideslip and let go, and she stays side slipping, with only a slow return to straight flight. You must keep on the rudder all the time, or the ball in the slip indicator will be all over the place. The ailerons on this airplane are very big and sensitive, and quite uncompensated, which doesn't help. Before starting the approach, we are told that the airplane tends to float, due to the curved undersurface of its wing. The best glide is 60 to 65; the sink rate goes up at lower speeds, and if you slow it up too soon you can find yourself sinking onto the ground with rather an untidy thump.
We find we need to keep pushing on the rudder to keep things straight on final. But there's perfectly adequate control on the roll-out. Taylorcraft went on building the hp Model B for many years. During World War II it produced a tandem trainer that looked very much like the old Cub, and also considerable numbers of the L-2B-called Grasshopper, as was the military Cub-in which an observer sat behind the pilot. Taylor designed a four-seater Model 15 with a hp Franklin, but what with a fire in the plant and overproduction of the hp model, Taylorcraft was soon bankrupt again. The corporation was revived in and lingered on into the mid fifties, experimenting with molded fiberglass coverings and models with up to hp. Taylor, though he designed splendid airplanes, was never the world's best businessman, whereas perhaps his old partner W.
Piper was. Float Terminology. About the Piper Cub The model that's still considered the generic general aviation airplane by many non-pilots still has an enormous attraction to pilots, as well. In fact, it's so popular, it has taken on classic status and assumed a price tag out of all proportion to its talents. Created in the early '30s, the Cub evolved to the 65 hp J-3 that would carry two at 65 knots cruise. The Super Cub came along in the '50s, with engines that eventually stabilized at hp and performance that stabilized just this side of unbelievable. Flightex was the most widely used brand name. The finish on the original Cubs was cellulose nitrate dope. Postwar Cubs were finished with cellulose butyrate dope. The last Super Cubs were covered with Ceconite Dacron cloth. Seats of inch width were mounted in tandem, and a large split-type door opened most of the right side; the airplane could be and often was flown with the right side open.
Windshield and windows were of Pyralin, and the left-side window was slideable for controlled ventilation. The sparse upholstery was whipcord; a small baggage shelf behind the rear seat had a pound capacity. The nine-gallon or optional gallon fuel tank was mounted just behind the firewall and utilized a simple, bobber-type fuel gauge that projected through the filler cap. The wing was framed with solid spruce spars early models or dural spars late models and stamped aluminum ribs. The leading edges, back to the front spar, were covered with dural metal sheet, and the completed framework was fabric-covered.
A simple tripod landing gear of inch tread was snubbed with Rusco rubber shock rings, and the 7. There were no wheel brakes on the early Cubs, except as extra-cost items. The fabric covered tail group was framed of welded steel tube, and the horizontal stabilizer was adjusted in flight, controlled by a jack screw. The rudder was aerodynamically balanced, and all controls were operated by twisted steel cable. The standard J-3 finish was "Cub Yellow" Randolph MD Sport Yellow with black trim. A Sensenich wooden propeller, wiring for position lights, dual controls, safety belts, and a first aid kit were standard equipment.
Optional equipment included battery, position lights, carburetor heater, cabin heater, steerable tail wheel, Goodyear air wheels with brakes, gallon fuel tank, wheel pants, prop spinner, Edo floats, and skis. The Goodyear tire size was 8. USAir pilot George Welsch has always had a sentimental attachment to the Cub. George's father soled in one in and in he soloed George in a J When Welsch learned that the historical significance of the Taylor factory site was lost on most Bradford residents and that no marker was in pla ce to signify the spot, he decided to do something about it. Welsch contacted the president of the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford, which is located on the site of Harri Emery Airport it turned out the school had a collection of rare Piper memorabilia with a plan to build a monument.
Just before entry into World War II, the United States government implemented what was known as the Civilian Pilot Training Program. The aircraft of choice for the "CPT" was the Piper Cub. In , 3, Cubs were built and at the wartime peak, a new one left the factory every 20 minutes. It was recorded that over 50, pilots began their flight training in Piper Cubs during WWII. In , the U. Army selected the Cub for artillery spotting. It was soon learned that this versatile airplane had capabilities far beyond the Army's initial expectations. The Army's version, modified for various tasks, was known as the L-4 and designated the "Grasshopper. Navy had a number of these airplanes designated the NE Specifications for the 65 h. version gave it a maximum speed of 85 mph, and a service ceiling of 12, feet. The range was just under miles and the gross weight was pounds. The airplane had a 35'2" wingspan and a length of 22' 3". Civil Air Patrol has a history with this airplane that dates back to WWII.
During this time, civilian pilots flew their private aircraft, many of which were Piper Cubs, in patrol along the Atlantic Coast. They conducted exhaustive searches for German submarines, known as U-boats. When a U-boat was sighted, CAP pilots would call in air strikes. German U-boat commanders quickly realized the threat of these tiny aircraft. Many U-boats would crash-dive upon sighting a CAP aircraft. Some of the submarine crews would try to shoot them down and, as a result, the Army Air Corps began arming the CAP airplanes with bombs. Duri ng the war two German U-boats were sunk by CAP air crews. If a CAP airplane was shot down, and several were, there was little chance for survival in the cold Atlantic. As a result of this threat, CAP developed a program of search and rescue which remains one of its three main missions to this day. Because of the nature of the mission of the early CAP air crews, they became known as the "Flying Minutemen! This is how the "minutemen" fought during the Revolutionary War.

The J-3 is distinguished from its successors by the exposed cylinder heads. There are very few other examples of "flat" aircraft engines as opposed to radial engines in which the cylinder heads are exposed. Note that they are NOT directly opposed.
