<\/h3>\nNew Systems from\u00a0BRS<\/span>\u00a0Aerospace Available for Installation on CubCrafters Fleet of\u00a0LSA<\/span>, Kit, and Builder Assist Aircraft<\/h3>\nCubCrafters is announcing the availability of new airframe parachute systems for the company\u2019s existing fleet of adventure airplanes. In May of 2016, the company introduced systems for new production Carbon Cubs. Now, retrofit parachutes may be installed at CubCrafters, and at select Authorized Service Centers. The airframe parachute systems, developed in partnership with\u00a0BRS<\/span>\u00a0Aerospace, contribute to the safety of CubCrafters\u2019 already exceptional aircraft designs by providing pilots with a safe course of action in otherwise difficult emergencies.<\/p>\n\u201cThe extraordinarily slow stall speed, fundamentally sound wing design and vortex generators assure low-speed stability and maneuverability in all CubCrafters aircraft\u201d, says Randy Lervold, CubCrafters\u2019 President. \u201cThe super-strong chrome-moly steel cage surrounding occupants in the Sport Cub and Carbon Cub is best in class. The addition of\u00a0BRS<\/span>\u00a0systems to our fleet not only provides a proven life-saving technology, but also additional peace of mind for Carbon Cub pilots and passengers.\u201d<\/p>\nThe new\u00a0BRS<\/span>\u00a0parachute system retrofits are available for CubCrafters\u2019 production Sport Cub and Carbon Cub SS aircraft, as well as the company\u2019s Carbon Cub FX Builder Assist model and their EX\/EX-2 kits. Two retrofit models are available:<\/p>\nLSA<\/span>\u00a0Sport Cub and Carbon Cub SS models, for gross weight up to 1,320 lbs. (1,430 lbs. on floats). This version weighs 41.4 lbs. and is priced at $15,990 installed.<\/p>\nCarbon Cub EX, EX-2 and FX experimental aircraft for gross weight up to 1,865 lbs. This configuration weighs 43.5 lbs. and is priced at $11,990 as a kit, or $15,990 installed.<\/p>\n
The new\u00a0BRS<\/span>\u00a0airframe parachute systems may be installed at CubCrafters Services in Yakima or at six select Authorized Service Centers across the United States.
