I think it was the GP, but I've never met a Cub I didn't like (Unless the wing wasn't clipped of course )
I have one on my bench right now I'm learning to hate!! Older CG 40 Cub kit, the anniversary kit. The fellow I'm building it for needed parts to fix his crash damage on his other one but that isn't a big deal. The dies were way beyond worn out when this one was cut. {crushed} I have had to take the parts into my wood shop and run them through the over head sander just to get then out of the sheets. Wood warp on the spars look like someone was trying to make a bow. Full wing too but it's going to ba a float plane.
Genes yellow and black Cub is still one of my favorites!!! The covering just pops!!!
Glad to hear Bills plane is a keeper. The first few flights of my Cub weren't so smooth. I kept getting behind it so the ground handling on take off was ugly.
