I have been on a long term search for my next and hopefully final aircraft purchase. Mainly looking for something that is Light Sport compliant and of course the Carbon Cub is high on the list but my typical cheap self is looking at other options and I have always had a good feeling about the Legend Cubs and to be honest, has always held my interest. To me it has been the 'underdog' that is just as good (for my needs) as the 'everyone needs a Carbon Cub crowd'. I seem to gravitate towards the underdog and the Legend is most likely going to be the plane that fills my hangar. Of course this can only happen if I sell a couple of the planes I currently have, not that it will be easy to do in today's market.
I have followed them since they produced their first J-3 'replica' with it's open cowl. I prefer the closed cowl, mainly due to a little better streamlined look and the fact of where I live makes it a better choice in my mind. I spoke with them while at Oshkosh and would really like to do the Texas Sport Cub version. I would probably go with the YO-233 or maybe even the 340 Titan option. I discussed with them that I would like to travel to TX and participating in the build assist program. This would allow me to do my own condition inspections and any modifications I want without much hassle.
Having stated my mindset, I am curious to hear from any owners on here about the good and bad of their Legends. Having said this, I will keep an open mind and may go with the brand favorite, the CC, if it is financially feasible.
Thanks!
