The J3-50 Overlander!

The J3-50 blends the timeless charm of the legendary Piper J-3 Cub with the proven performance of Cessna 150 wings, creating an aircraft that is both familiar and revolutionary. Built in the experimental category, the J3-50 offers pilots an inexpensive way to fly faster and farther while retaining the short-field, off-airport capability that made the Cub iconic. Whether you’re looking for a nostalgic weekend flyer, a capable backcountry camper, or a platform for adventure flying, the J3-50 delivers modern performance without losing the simplicity, economy, and spirit of the original Cub.

Make affordable flying a reality with the J3-50 Overlander. Powered by a 100 HP engine, it cruises at over 100 MPH while burning just 6 gallons per hour, with 30 gallons of fuel capacity for extended adventures. With stall speeds as low as 35 MPH, the J3-50 Overlander combines true backcountry performance with the docile, forgiving handling of the classic J-3. From gravel bar landings to tailwheel training, this aircraft is built to do it all—efficient, capable, and ready for adventure.
