Super Cub

Iconic small motorcycle

Super Cub refers to the Piper PA-18, a small single-engine aircraft renowned for its rugged reliability and short-field capability.

Introduced in 1949, it became the workhorse of bush pilots, crop dusters, and flight schools.

The name now applies broadly to similar lightweight utility aircraft: He learned to fly in an old Super Cub.

Honda also makes a Super Cub motorcycle—one of the best-selling motor vehicles in history.
