- Junior Daniel is the builder of the 2024 Alaska Airmen's raffle plane. In this video he shares his story of how he became an aircraft builder and a bush pilot and how his time in the military shaped his perspective of flying and the freedom it provides. This plane is an experimental super cub built primarily with Javron components. This aircraft will be given away at the upcoming Great Alaska Aviation Gathering in May.
