Requested paint in the white scheme similar to the one I did for the Asobo X-Cub.
Livery from the single engine two-seat glider tug in use by the Belgian Air Force.
The Asobo Savage Cub is the closest aircraft to the Piper L-18C Super Cub. There are many differences, but it is sufficient for this repaint of the fuselage and wings.
In 1975 the Belgian Air Force acquired six Piper Super Cubs for use by the Belgian Air Cadets. Contrary to the gliders the Piper Cubs are not the property of the Air Cadets and are exclusively flown by Belgian Air Force personnel. The aircraft are the responsibility of the Military Center for Gliding based at Goetsenhoven and report to No 1 Wing Training at Beauvechain. During the active gliding periods the aircraft are mainly based at Bertrix and occasionally, but can also be deployed to other bases where no winch (used to get the gliders airborne) is available. In the early period of operation the Super Cubs were painted in camouflage with day glow nose, tail and wingtips, but later the aircraft got a white paint scheme with orange engine cowling, wings and vertical tail plane.
