A few of my past projects

Over the years Shane has worked on a variety of unique bush plane projects, each built to match the owner's mission and flying style.

 

Every aircraft tells a different story, and we enjoy helping owners bring those projects to life.

Turbine Super Cub Project

The Turbine Cub is a one-of-a-kind bush plane project being built from the ground up.

What started as an idea in the hangar has grown into a project followed by aviation enthusiasts, companies, and supporters from around the world.

​

From the hangar to the backcountry, every stage of the build is being documented as we bring the Turbine Cub to life.
