Limited Edition Piper J-3 Cub Die-Cast Model Now Available

Model fashioned after Cub stationed at Sporty’s

Sporty’s die-cast Cub model is a reminder for many pilots of their student pilot days. For others, the Cub is simply a well-loved aircraft model.

First flown in 1939, and still flying today, over 20,000 J-3 Cubs were built. More than any other Piper aircraft. This 1:72 scale die-cast replica features detailed printed graphics, realistic landing gear, see-through cockpit, and a rotating propeller.

An included display stand lets you customize the flight configuration. Officially licensed by Piper, this model measures four inches long with a six-inch wingspan.

“You’d have to look far and wide to find a pilot who doesn’t like the Cub,” says Sporty’s President John Zimmerman. “This model is a fantastic memento from many pilots’ training experience.”

Sporty’s Piper J-3 Cub Die-Cast Model [7071W] is available for $54.99 and may be purchased at sportys.com or by calling 1-800-SPORTYS.
