Floatplanes aren't just fun, they're stupid fun. In this video, Aviation Consumer's Paul Bertorelli takes a test hop with Dick Parsons in American Legend's new amphibious LSA Cub. It has terrific performance and it's fun and easy to fly. Come on along.

159K + tax 170,000 Dollars for tube and fabric.. What is wrong with this country...

The five star rating is for the reporting.

The $159,000 price tag for a two seater LSA is sure to keep aviation in the U.S. dormant for a while longer.

Guys let's be honest there is pretty much no point for certifying airplanes as LSA because of the price.

why are LSA's so fuckin expensive!?! if im gonna spend that much for one, I might as well go get my private and buy a real airplane.....

[DrPilotRedC]

looks like a really fun plane!

They should do one of these videos on the CC11-160 amphib! 80hp MORE than this airplane and still LSA!

Yeah its exxy for a very simple aircraft but its factory built, it looks to me like an O-200 motor and the panel and floats are not cheap - certified or not. $130 - $140 with BYO GPS would be more palatable but I assume these guys are not driving Ferraris. Did I mention that I want one? J-3 yellow will do fine plus some means for delivering flour-based ordinance to those who displease me!

agree with everyone here... 159K is way too expensive for what this is.
