Description
Mason Amelia proudly presents perhaps the GREATEST STOL AIRCRAFT ON THE PLANET!
The SQ-12 is the culmination of 25 years of experimental Cub building, starting with the famed Wayne Mackey and the SQ-1. Every subsequent iteration incorporated new designs and materials, striving to increase performance and build the perfect backcountry aircraft.
A very rare four-seat STOL aircraft built to haul, the SQ-12 outperforms all other Cubs. An all-time favorite of Alaskan pilots, load it with supplies, take off in 100 feet, land in 100 feet on a mountaintop or gravel bed, bring in a moose, take a nap on the full-recline seat, pack up, and fly home. No other Cub comes close to its performance, nor its attitude.
Built over 3000 hours with onsite supervision by Wayne Mackey himself, the gray-black carbon scheme is NOT A WRAP. It is miles and miles of fabric tape and 1100 hours of labor. Photos cannot convey the true luster and presence of the aircraft, nor its amazing and highly functional sport-luxury cabin.
Built in Alaska for true adventure, winner of the 2025 Outstanding Workmanship award at EAA AirVenture, N401SQ is a step beyond. Meant for the serious backcountry pilot, this is THE connoisseur’s Cub, the best of the best. Not a toy, a true performer - built to offer opportunities few get to experience.
