American Legend Cub

Overview

• American Legend Aircraft Co. has listened to customers who wanted a new light sport Cub with the latest safety features, but couldn’t afford those now on the market. The Classic J-3 is configured with a single clamshell door and window combination for right-hand entry and exit—and a sliding window on the lefthand side—much like the Piper Super Cub. The Classic J-3 comes with these features: a 100-horsepower Continental O-200 engine, all-metal cowling with exposed cylinders, disk brakes, die-spring gear, and shoulder harnesses at both seats.
