Hey Elie:

I think your Cub should have a custom trim scheme...

Hello everyone!


Ok, the time has come! There is only 1 Cub remaining that is UN-SOLD on the container!

ONLY 1 LEFT! Who will be the last guy to get a BAD A$$ airplane for the Joe NAll?

Mike?

Hmmm........

Someone better call!

Thanks,

Bill

All construction of the Cubs are complete minus the wing struts and cowling. I hope that all of these will be completed by the end of this week. The Extra 260's are a little further behind schedule as they are just now starting the complex color scheme on those. So, my best guess is that the packing of the container will start next week. Still on schedule for the April delivery time frame delivery.

For about $1400.00 a Cub can be airmailed direct from China to the US. Anyone??? (didn't think so).

1-picture of the Extra 260 final fitting prior to covering.

Also,here are the beautiful Cubs waiting for packing!!!
