  The Marawing 1-L Malamut is a Czech ultralight aircraft, designed and produced by Marawing of Kolín. The aircraft is supplied as a complete ready-to-fly-aircraft.
  
  ## Design and development
  
  The Malamut was developed from the classic Piper J-3 Cub. It was designed to comply with the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight rules. It features a strut-braced high-wing, a two-seats-in-tandem enclosed cockpit, fixed conventional landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration.
  
  The aircraft is constructed in the same manner as the Cub. The fuselage is made from welded steel tubing, while the wings have a wooden structure, all covered in doped aircraft fabric. Its 10.1 m (33.1 ft) span wing has an area of 15.1 $m^2$ (163 sq ft) and flaps. The standard engine available is the 80 hp (60 kW) Rotax 912UL four-stroke powerplant.
