It's a Cub, but it can still kill people when that
"field-repaired" prop throws a chunk of blade and tears the engine off
its mounts. Or later, when that almost-certainly cracked crank fails.
As I said in another post, the small Continentals are prone to crank
cracking after prop strikes. Anything violent enough to bend a prop
warrants investigation.
