Timber Tiger Offers the Early Bird Jenny

AirVenture Crowds Find New Home for Beloved Homebuilt

While the order form has been live for a while, Timber Tiger hasn’t really made a big deal out of their newly available Early Bird Jenny kit, a charming little riff on the classic WWI warbird in reduced scale.

The Curtis JN-4 Jenny cemented its place in history as a classic barnstormer in the early heyday of aviation, built up through plentiful government surplus and a never-ending roster of daring pilots willing to put the new-old-stock through its paces. Surplus Jennys, of course, are too dear for most to take out for a spin. Even if one were to come across the auction block, the hammer price would lie far beyond the average pilots’ means anyway. Thus the Early Bird Jenny was a perfect tonic to cure any latent Jenny addiction in the average sport pilot, offering the looks, the simplicity, and the sweet handling of the Jenny at a pretty good price point.

Timber Tiger’s pretty little Ryan homage, the ST-L, is there, too, in unfinished, fuselage-only form. It’s a good reminder that Timber Tiger makes stuff for builders, so any prospective Jenny pilot should be ready to put in more than a little elbow grease in order to get theirs up and running. It should be noted that the Jenny doesn’t get the same number of pre-built options as its ST-L stepsister, so the aircraft exhibited is largely the same as what builders will see once complete.
