Exterior Paint Options
Classic Cub
In its traditional yellow paint with a black lightning bolt, the Legend Cub is a standout. When first introduced, the Cub design was available only in yellow. It is said that's because it was a color most visible from the ground. The bright yellow paint is perhaps the reason why Cubs are the most recognizable airplanes in aviation's history. Today, as before, the Legend Cub will grab the attention of fliers and non-fliers alike.
Cub Special
The Legend Cub Special was introduced in 2006 as an evolution in the Legend Cub line of aircraft. In addition to its eye-catching two-tone paint scheme, the Legend Cub Special came equipped with a variety of standard features such as a leather interior, adjustable air vents, a lighting package, larger 8.00 x 6 tires, and a Nav/Comm avionics package. Many of these features are now popular options on the Legend Cub. The Cub Special paint scheme is now an available option. Call for current pricing.
Legend Combat
The Legend Combat revives the classic WWII liaison aircraft with its military paint scheme. It is reminiscent of the historic L-4, L-18 and L-21 produced as liaison aircraft for the U.S. Army and Air Force from 1942 to 1962. These aircraft are commonly nicknamed “Grasshopper” partly for their olive drab color, and certainly for its ability to takeoff and land on grass fields. Call for current pricing.
Interior Options
Cloth / Vinyl Seats
The interior of the Legend Cub is the most comfortable of any airplane in its class. Plush padded seats with a full-width aft seat provide superb comfort for short hops or cross-country flying. What's not so apparent at first glance is the 3-inch wider cabin, slightly elevated forward seat, greater headroom due to less structural interference, and more forward leg room without a bulkhead fuel tank. The Legend Cub's standard vinyl seats with cloth inserts provide unmatched comfort and durability.
Black Leather Seats
For those who prefer the supple feel of natural leather, custom made, embroidered seat upholstery is available in black or gray leather.
Gray Leather Seats
For those who prefer the supple feel of natural leather, custom made, embroidered seat upholstery is available in black or gray leather.
Airbag Seat Belts
Designed to protect the head and torso of passengers and pilots during survivable aircraft accidents. Compatible with standard restraint attachment points, the airbag is stored in the lap belt portion of the seatbelt and deploys up and away from the seat occupant, affording passengers of all sizes critical protection to the head, neck and torso in the event of an aircraft impact. Meeting the 16g requirements for commercial passenger seats. For more information, go to www.AmSafe.com
