SULPHUR SPRINGS, TEXAS, MAY 4, 2008 – American Legend Aircraft Company announced today the company is offering $2,000 in free options with the purchase of its acclaimed Legend FloatCub certified light-sport aircraft. The offer allows customers to purchase a new Legend FloatCub ready to fly at a base price of $121,025 plus his/her choice of $2,000 in optional equipment at no extra cost. A variety of options are available to enhance the comfort, convenience, and safety of the aircraft. This offer is good through May 2008.
The Legend FloatCub is the seaplane certified version of the #1 selling American made light-sport Legend Cub. It weighs less than comparable aircraft, costs less, and has the added advantage of doors and windows on both sides of the cockpit. This single design feature was built into every Legend Cub, but is especially appropriate for the float-equipped model allowing pilot/passenger entry from either side of the aircraft. It also allows the pilot/boatsman to dock his craft as the drift dictates left or right.The Legend FloatCub was first flown and certified in 2005. Now in its third year, it performs more like a tiger than a Cub. Equipped with Baumann 1500 floats, the Legend FloatCub does not see the significant performance losses that most seaplane pilots have come to expect. Most aircraft drop 20-percent in speed due to aerodynamic drag. The Legend FloatCub cruises at a top speed of 92 mph, a mere 10-percent less than the wheeled Legend Cub. Climb rates typically drop 40- to 45-percent with the addition of floats. In the Legend FloatCub this decrease is less than 30-percent, or about 500 fpm versus 700 fpm. The Legend FloatCub is the ultimate personal seaplane that outperforms. It hauls a respectable load, is safe, offers comfort, operates affordably, and most of all it delivers fun. In 2006, the Legend FloatCub was awarded Best Float Fabric Seaplane at Sun ‘n Fun Fly-In. The aircraft was demonstrated there at the world renown Jack Brown’s Seaplane Base and participated in the two-day Splash-In event at nearby Lake Parker. American Legend Aircraft Company manufacturers the Legend Cub, Legend FloatCub, Legend Combat, and Legend Cub Special—all FAA-certified aircraft for sport, recreation and training. The American Legend Cub is an all-new aircraft design similar in appearance to the classic Piper J-3, PA-11, and L-4. Its flying characteristics are attuned to the joy of flying. Completely modern in its design, materials, and available options, the Legend Cub blends the best in history with the best of today.
