“The SuperSTOL XL is a larger version of the popular SuperSTOL. XL stands for eXtra Large. We have taken our traditional SuperSTOL, which is an awesome airplane, and added 24 inches to the fuselage and 6 inches on the nose to accommodate larger engines.”
“One of the unique things about the SuperSTOL XL is that it has a locking tailwheel that can be used as a training tool,” he said. “It helps the pilot keep the airplane going straight on takeoffs and landings. It takes about 10 hours to transition for the moderately experienced tailwheel pilot, and we do have customers who build their aircraft at the factory through the Builder’s Assist Program and have nothing but Cessna 150 time. We can usually solo them in a SuperSTOL in about the 15 hour range.”
“This is a go-anywhere, do-anything bush plane”
– Harrison Smith, Just Aircraft’s demo pilot 2014-2017

Just’s SuperSTOL XL offers unparalleled performance in short takeoffs, landings and slow flight. Configured as a high wing, with side-by-side seats, and tundra tires, the XL can be set down in virtually any clearing. The SuperSTOL was designed for back country flying and weekend adventures and Titan adds a new dimension to those adventures. The XL is sold as a complete kit for homebuilders.
The SuperSTOL XL sports an all metal wing aerodynamically designed to enhance slow flight capabilities while also increasing cruise speed. Additionally the wing incorporates self-deploying leading edge slats and long span fowler flaps to further improve the aircraft’s stall range. To complement the new wing we have installed a new landing gear system that takes full advantage of a hydraulic strut with a long distance of travel. The tail wheel also incorporates a hydraulic shock to lessen aggressive off airport landings. No other aircraft kit manufacturer offers a comparable airplane.
The wing slats, when combined with the large Fowler flaps, allow the aircraft to be flown at extremely high angles of attack permitting it to ‘drop’ into small or inclined clearings. This provides access to considerably more off-airport landing sites, making the SuperStol XL one of the most versatile backcountry machines out there. The SuperSTOL XL will cruise at 110 mph, land at 32 mph, and take off or land with as little as 150 feet of runway.
