Piper J-3L50 Cub
Description Piper J-3/L50 Cub: The Piper J-3 Cub was evaluated at Langley by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) in late 1939 to early 1940. The J-3 was used by many World War II pilots as the airplane in which they were first introduced to flight. Note that the extended NACA use of the Cub led to its markings in NACA colors of yellow and blue, with the Committee's shield on the rudder.
