About the Piper J-5 Cub Cruiser
The Piper J-5 Cub Cruiser is a late-1930s three-seat enlargement of the J-3, built from 1940, with a wider fuselage and a rear bench seating two behind the pilot. More powerful and roomier than the J-3, it was the forerunner of the postwar PA-12 Super Cruiser and served in WWII as the AE-1 air ambulance. It is a desirable tandem-style Cub-family classic today.
