Bush airplanes are known for their amazing short takeoff and short landing capabilities. But like any other aircraft in GA, cost can get up there for a certified bush plane like the Cubcrafter for example. A brand new Cub is north of $300,000. If you don’t have $300,000 to spend, there are plenty of good options in the experimental market. Here are 5 awesome Experimental Bush Planes you can buy and or build for a fraction of the cost.

Draco is an experimental aircraft y'all. That's why it made the list. I can tell who's watching the video and who's just reading video title. Word on the street is that Draco will be back, but hey you didn't hear it from me :)

Draco 1 is not coming back, Mike Patey said so. Instead, he is going to build Draco 2, using another Wilga, which he has already acquired. Also, Patey had OVER 1.6 million invested into Draco 1, so..... ummmm... not exactly attainable. A decent used, late 60's or early 70's 182 with a Sportsman stol and VG's makes for an amazingly capable machine, and you can pick one up for less than the cost of completing ANY of these kits. And carry four adults plus fuel... and train in it, legally... how you miss the boat so hard is beyond me.

Draco is no more! As Mike put it, I made a poor decision that day trying to take off in a high crosswind that almost cost me, my wife and a good friend our lives. As pilots we are always learning if we get the chance. I love your smile when you were taking off in the SuperSTOL XL aircraft. Grinning from ear to ear while you were heading for the end of the grass strip that terminates into a small pond and then trees. Knowing that any hiccup would result in a splashdown and foliage you were keeping your cool smiling ear to ear. What power that aircraft has and what confidence you had in your pilot. Great footage on all the kit planes except Draco! If I had the money I would build one too!! I think Mike has purchased another white Willga aircraft to replicate Draco! At least that’s what I took away from seeing footage of a Willga aircraft showing up near his hanger?? Fly safe and we can’t wait for you Sling!

Mike Patey’s current project is “scrappy”, a one off, custom carbon cub of his own design. It’s amazing to watch him build this thing from his own imagination. Can’t wait to see the finished product, looks like it’ll be even more amazing than Draco if that’s even possible. Can highly recommended catching his KZfaq channel

Jamie Matterface - I have followed Mike & Mark his twin for several years now and as a Engineer I am still amazed with all his aircraft configuration that he comes up with. I been involved with designing aircraft systems and structures for 35 years and working directly with composite during the same time. I flew for the Navy for 8 years but the designs and rapid tooling he comes up with and his work ethics still amaze me to this day. I am humbled by his achievements and have to pay homage to his contributions to General Aviation and Experimental aircraft. He’s the man! Burt Rutan ain’t shit! Scrappy is going to be a bad ass aircraft. I had to ask him if placement of the stick in the full forward position with his gust lock position design would cause the tail empennage to raise up in windy conditions without being tied down. Or would the elevator surface angle of attack be trimmed down to compensate for the elevator being locked in the nose down position. He said great question and he’ll answer this later with a full explanation??

​Import a kit from any one of the Super Cup clone manufacturers, from Wag Aero, fom Kitfox, from Rans, from Just Aircraft, from one of the South African manufacturers (my personal favourite it the KFA Safari), from Glasair, from Bearhawk, from Murphy, from Zenith, etc. Wait about 18 months and you could order a kit for the RV-15 from Vans (assuming Vans stay in business that is). Alternatively, you can scratch build a Zenith, a Bearhawk or a PA-18 Super Cub from plans.

He completely ignores the real bargains, the 70-90K four seat, haul anything, go 140 kts+ airplanes because they are "old schoold". (like 182's, Comanche's, etc). Also, depending on your budget, there are some darn good older 172's and Cherokees that can be had for well under 50K..... they only haul 3 people (realistically), but the value for the money is awesome.

The title infers that the "top5" are due to their popularity and availability. 2 of those aircraft don't make the list, as one is a million dollar highly specialized one off. The other is the conceptual sling, not even off the ground yet. The other aircraft were good choices. The Rans S7 is one that's been around a long time and is very popular. Hard to believe when the first Rans S7 kit came out in 91, they were 15k including covering and Rotax 582 2 stroke engine. It was reasonably affordable in those days. It's hard to believe that now a days so much money can be leveraged out of a few pounds of steel and fabric.

I am curious, you said experimental bush planes and yet you are showing Sling TSI (Not a bush plane as far as I am aware) and Polish PZL 104 Wilga 2000. Wilga is no more in production and the last model was fitted with 360HP engine which was overkill for this plane. Wilga is NOT bush plane and is not available as a kit. Wilga was designed as agriculture plane (Versions PZL 104 - 35 and PZL 104 - 80) and was modified as multipurpose aeroclub training plane and glider towing plane. It is normal in Poland to see Wilga towing up to 3 gliders at once. Wilga 2000 was designed mostly for Canadian/American market that is why this plane was not fitted with Russian AR14J engine. There is plenty of Wilgas worldwide flying with a Russian engine. This plane should not be listed here. I know that Mike converted this plane putting PT6 turboprop in it and he did modify almost everything in that Wilga, but You can also declare let say Cessna (any model) as Experimental plane and do what you are pleased to do. I am wondering why there is no a plane like J3 on your list? There is many versions available as experimental/LSA kits on the market and they are meant to be as a bush plane.

Hard to take this list for anything. You have sling as a bush plane, no RANS, no carbon cub, no zenith. Did I mention no RANS?

Hey Mike, as usual an excellent video. I will throw out a little-known airplane that I used to own but does have a loyal following. ... . Cisler Cygnet. VW for power although 85 horsepower engine with simular weight I personally think would be better. A nice used one will go anywhere from 10 to 15,000. To build one Frankly you're looking about 20-30K if you want to take the time. Google them. With an 85 horsepower Volkswagen engine I routinely got off the ground in 300 - 400 feet and landed in about the same. climb rate was not astronomical but it was still around a thousand feet per minute at full gross. Useful payload was right around the 550 lb range. Cruise was a comfortable 90 mph. Top speed...120 mph. Stall was in the 30 mph range and I routinely came down final at 40 miles per hour. Add a little bit of a headwind on final and I would land in less than 200 ft. Not bad for an inexpensive airplane that burned is less than 4 gallons per hour.I would own another one only not with the Volkswagen engine. Just my opinion as there are a lot of Volkswagen engines out there that are doing well. Doran Jaffas Tailwind W8 N625MS KY70

The foil that allows the Just Superstol the ability to be controlled at very low speeds are called "slats" , not "slates". The "a" is short like in "cat" in the "hat".

but you are restricted to airport landings... form and function... I have mines out where airports aren't... so ...it's sounding like a bargain... and I might have to buy a couple... and I can hang out the door and look at the ground... at 35kph... or close to it... the mosquitoes are another possibility... .. or both

Pretty sure it’s the Justaircraft 103 prototype. With those tires and motor it’s no longer an ultralight though

Many people have asked about the aircraft used for the thumbnail/photo. I'd like to know as well. It sure resembles a Team Air-Bike but seems larger and obviously the tube aft portion of fuselage is quite different. If anyone knows, please share!! Thanks!

A lot of the turboprop aircraft have reverse pitch to help with shortening landings. It’s common on commercial planes that need to keep flying even if runways are iced over.
