SportairUSA, LC, the U.S. distributor of Savage Cub-S, Cub, Cruiser and Classic aircraft, announced a contest today to rename the Savage Cub-S.
The airplane is manufactured in Europe and sold world-wide as the Savage Cub-S. It’s a callback to the original Piper Super Cub, but it’s a new build, with modern engineering design and technology. And like the original Pipers, the Cub-S is priced right and built to last.
The soon-to-be-renamed Cub-S is a light sport aircraft with moxie.
• 180 hp Titan Stroker engine
• 4.74 lb/hp
• Alaskan Bushwheels & extended landing gear
• 60-foot takeoff roll
• 112 mph cruise
In our enthusiasm for the Cub-S we overlooked something when we introduced it at AirVenture 2013 in Oshkosh.. The word “Cub” is a registered trademark in the USA. Even though many manufacturers of kits and ready-to-fly airplanes do use Cub in the names of their products, that word actually belongs to someone, someone who asked us to stop using it. And we will. That’s why we’re having a contest to rename the airplane.
Entry is free, and easy. Visit the contest Web site at www.cub.aero/contest. Fill out the form and submit it. SportairUSA will chose the winning names, and the winners and their prizes will be announced at the U.S. Sport Aviation Expo in January, 2015.
We created this dilemma, but it’s an opportunity for the best entry to win a new Apple iPad Air equipped with the ForeFlight Mobile App, the pilot information multitool that displays navigation, situational awareness, weather, airport and other vital information on the iPad’s high-resolution Retina screen.
There are additional prizes for second and third place entries. Here’s the complete list.
1. First Prize is an iPad Air (32GB, WiFi+Cellular) equipped with the ForeFlight Mobile App and a one-year subscription to ForeFlight Standard service for one pilot.
2. Second Prize is an iPad Mini Retina (32GB, WiFi+Cellular) equipped with the ForeFlight Mobile App and a one-year subscription to ForeFlight Standard service for one pilot..
3. Third Prize is a coupon for a one-year subscription to ForeFlight Standard, or $75 cash. Your

180hp Zlin Cub-S: Best power-to-weight in category
The 180hp Titan Stroker IO-340 powered Zlin Cub-S is coming to the United States as a light sport aircraft (S-LSA), according to Bill Canino of SportairUSA. The U.S. distributor for aircraft manufactured by Zlin Aviation will bring the Cub-S to Oshkosh in late July for AirVenture 2013. Look for the SportairUSA site at #295 Knapp Road, located just off of Celebration Way, between the Lycoming display and the EAA Welcome Center.
Site Location: Between Lycoming & EAA Welcome Center
With its best in category power-to-empty weight ratio of 4.74 lbs/hp (7.33 lbs at MTOW), the Cub-S climbs at up to 2100 fpm. Takeoff roll is 60 feet with one pilot, or 81 feet fully loaded. Cruise speed is 112 mph at 75% power, even when equipped with 31” Alaskan Bushwheels and 6” extended landing gear. The Cub-S sports a capacious cargo area and carries a 505 lb payload.
“The Cub-S performs brilliantly in difficult, remote operations,” said Canino. “This is a lot of airplane for less than $125,000.” The first two deliveries are scheduled for November of this year.
The Cub-S is a fun, safe, robust and easy-to-fly airplane, suitable for weekend escapes or for expeditions into the bush.
“Now you have choices,” said Pasquale Russo of Zlin Aviation. “You can chase the $100 hamburger or you can land on the highest mountain slope, reach the most isolated snow covered village, fly in to that secluded fishing spot or pristine beach to spend the day or camp for a week.”
The Cub-S is the result of two years of study by Zlin Aviation in collaboration with experienced Alaskan bush pilots. The result is an LSA that comes as close as possible to being the perfect utility airplane for demanding off-runway operating conditions. This new airplane tops the Zlin line, which also includes the Savage Bobber, Cub, iCub, Cruiser and Classic.
GRS Parachute Patented
SportairUSA, LC, the American distributor of rocket-assisted GRS airframe rescue systems manufactured by Galaxy High Technology, announced the award of a U.S. patent for the unique deployment system incorporated in GRS parachute devices.
“Galaxy builds the world’s fastest deploying whole-plane parachute in either high-speed or low-speed events,” said Bill Canino, President of SportairUSA. “The GRS system for light sport aircraft opens in less than 5 seconds, at maximum speed or at stall speed, enabling deployment as low as 270’ AGL.”
Canino noted that GRS rescue systems are standard equipment in the TL-2000 Sting and TL-3000 Sirius aircraft distributed by SportairUSA, and optionally available in the Savage line of iCub, Cub, Cruiser and Classic.
SportairUSA, LC, is an FAA certificated repair station and the United States distributor for Savage aircraft and the new Corsair 103.
We are located at the North Little Rock Municipal Airport (KORK).
