Auto Credit Based on Jundroo's Bush Plane

The Bush Plane was first added to the game 9.3 years ago by WeebabySeamus. It was based on, well, a piper cub bush plane and featured an open, roll bar cockpit.
It was updated 4.1 years ago, this time being based on a few clipped wing CubCrafter designs, most notably The CubCrafters CC18-180 Top Cub. With the prop appearing to come from a Carbon Cub UL.
OH! I almost forgot! I lengthened the wings, Got rid of two of the trim rotators and did some FT with the pitch rotators so you can still use trim.

This one has been slightly resized, and it's drag model rewrote to give it a more acurate cg. It now has two seats instead of one, although the rear seat doesn't have a camera. It now is powered by a 180 hp Lycoming O-360 that spawns running but can be turned off.

AGs:
7-Lights
8-Engine.

Fun Fact:
I've owned two UMX Sport Cub S's, one had clipped wings.
The Cubcrafters Sport cub is built using carbon fiber and a lighter weight fabric than the PA-18.
It is used in a variety of roles, from bush plane to banner and sailplane towing.
