This 2020 Piper PA-18 Super Cub (N258JP) represents a meticulously maintained experimental aircraft with championship pedigree, having earned the title of 2023 Oshkosh Grand Champion. With only 275 hours total time since factory new, the airframe features a fresh condition inspection completed May 1, 2025, and showcases premium upgrades including Oratex fabric covering, CC gap seals, extended baggage with access door, and an overhead x-brace structure. The aircraft maintains a light 1,075 lb empty weight with a 1,750 lb gross weight, yielding a respectable 675 lb useful load.
Power comes from a Lycoming O-320A-1 engine showing 275 hours since major overhaul with significant renewals including new nickel cylinders featuring 8.5:1 pistons, new cam, lifters, and bearings, complemented by a Vetterman exhaust system and dual P-mag electronic ignitions. The engine turns an efficient 82" Catto propeller with 475 hours since overhaul. Modern avionics include a Dynon 10" HDX touchscreen display with engine monitoring, Mode-S transponder with ADS-B In/Out capability, and an Artex 406 ELT. The aircraft's experimental status allows optimized performance features like a zero-degree thrustline while retaining VFR operational capability.
