EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we find the iconic Piper J-3F-65 Cub Prospector CF-DSA, a cherished addition to the Leavens Brothers Air Services Limited fleet during the 1960s. The Cub Prospector, a model of the renowned J-3 Cub aircraft series manufactured by Piper Aircraft Corporation, is renowned for its versatility, durability, and ease of use. The Cub Prospector, with its distinctive orange and white paint scheme, sits proudly on the grassy tarmac, its wings casting long, intricate shadows as the sun begins to set. The aircraft's tail number, CF-DSA, is clearly visible, adding a sense of history and provenance to the image. The J-3F-65 Cub Prospector was a popular choice among private pilots and small aviation operators due to its versatility as both a trainer and a utility aircraft. Its powerful engine, coupled with its short takeoff and landing capabilities, made it an ideal choice for bush flying and backcountry operations. Leavens Brothers Air Services Limited, based in Canada, was a respected name in the aviation industry during the mid-20th century. The company offered a range of services, including aircraft sales, maintenance, and flight training. The inclusion of the Cub Prospector in their fleet speaks to their commitment to providing their clients with the best possible options for their aviation needs. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era of aviation, a time when small, privately-owned aircraft played a crucial role in connecting communities and enabling exploration of the great outdoors. The Piper J-3F-65 Cub Prospector CF-DSA, captured here in its prime, stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of these classic aircraft and the spirit of adventure they represent.
