The PA-18 Super Cub became aviation's most successful utility aircraft, dominating bush flying and flight training for over four decades. First flown in 1949, it was a high-wing, single-engine monoplane that seated two in tandem configuration and could operate from strips as short as 200 feet. With a 35-foot wingspan and powered by engines ranging from 90 to 150 horsepower, the Super Cub achieved legendary short-field performance that made it indispensable for backcountry operations. Manufactured by Piper Aircraft Corporation, it recorded the longest production run of any single aircraft model in aviation history.
