Just got an update on the production J-3 Cubs already! Oracover is out of stock of Cub Yellow Fabric and the production run for Cub Yellow will not take place until Febuary 20th.

What does this mean to us? Well, it means that the shipment from China will be delayed by about 3 weeks. The shipment looks like it will take place in March and I will receive the container in April. I am really sorry about this delay but that still gives the die-hard builders enough time for the Joe Nall!

The problem occured when China attempted to order the 2300 FEET of covering needed for this project! Wow, now that is a lot of covering material.

Bill Hempel

I will keep you posted on any changes.
Bill,

Will this affect my order of the new 50% 260 Extra scheme in March.

I would imagine the 260 is a different covering, yeah?

Hey Clive,

No problems mate, your Extra will not be delayed!

The Cub was using a fabric type covering on the prototype but will now be covered in the same stuff (Ultracote) as your Extra. This will be a good thing for the Cub as it will lower the overall weight by over 1 pound! It will have a glossy finish and be easier to clean.

Bill
