Description
Presenting N295T - a beautifully cared‑for 1953 Piper Super Cub offering the full Alaska‑ready trifecta: wheels, floats, and skis.

Whether you’re hopping between lakes, exploring snow‑covered terrain, or cruising from your local strip, this Super Cub delivers the classic Cub experience with the versatility only a true three‑gear aircraft can offer. This airframe presents well for its age, with a ground-up restoration, an overhauled engine, and the dependable performance these early Cubs are known for. The aircraft has been actively flown, properly maintained, and kept in flying condition rather than stored away.
