FOR SALE $359,000 – Contact Brad Damm (509) 961-2313

The third generation of the Carbon Cub, with a pilot-controlled constant-speed propeller and even more horsepower than the iconic Carbon Cub SS, delivers the best performance, efficiency, and speed available in the Carbon Cub family. With CubCrafters’ exclusive lightweight CC363i engine, the Hartzell Trailblazer propeller, a maximum gross weight of 2,000 lbs., and amazingly comfortable cockpit ergonomics & cabin heat, there simply isn’t a more versatile 2-place tandem backcountry aircraft available anywhere.

Named “BlackBird” and originally used as a promotional and STOL Drag airplane by Tactical Aeronautics, you might have seen this airplane at the Reno National Championship air races or at the High Sierra fly-in. With the military tribute black-ops paint scheme, this airplane always draws a lot of attention and is a crowd favorite.

CubCrafters currently has a two-year (plus) backlog of orders for new FX-3 aircraft going into 2025. With this pre-owned FX-3 in great condition, you don’t have to wait two flying seasons for a new aircraft. This airplane is a well-cared-for example of the Carbon Cub model that continues to be CubCrafters best-selling tailwheel aircraft, and the airplane that is widely considered to be the most capable two-place tandem aircraft you can get for the backcountry!

N14JY will be delivered with a fresh annual condition inspection from the CubCrafters Factory.
