Piper Cub...anything but YELLOW


       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
Hello folks. I am going to be building a piper cub over the winter. Can you believe I have been in the hobby for over 20 years and never built a cub I was hoping to finish it in something rather than the everyday yellow. I am looking for pics of full scale planes. I have found a few but nothing grabs me yet.

Re: Piper Cub...anything but YELLOW

Once the mortgage is paid off on the plane you can re-paint it.

Re: Piper Cub...anything but YELLOW

I have a few dozen cub photos showing many different colour schemes.

If you PM me your e-mail address, I will send you out some of the most unique ones to ponder.
