1946 Piper J3-C (Cub)
This Piper J-3 Cub was restored to original condition by the late owner, Mr. Glenn Kinney of Coupeville, Washington. It was donated to the Port Townsend Aero Museum by his daughter, Ms. Carol Russo of Moffett, California in 2003. It is a very big hit with our young cadre of pilots who eagerly await their turn to take it up, and experience flying the way it was meant to be.
