John Uczekaj will continue to lead the company as president and chief executive officer. The name of the combined company remains Aspen Avionics. CubCrafters has announced a new builder assist program. Called the ‘Carbon Cub FX Builder Assist program’ it allows the FX builder to be rewarded with a new Carbon Cub certified as Experimental-Amateur Built.

It involves five 8-hour days working with factory technicians fabricating and assembling steel, aluminum, and composite aircraft components.
