I wouldn't discount the cubs and cesnas for short runways, couple years ago there was a show on discovery about alaska and one of the things they showed were cubs and cesnas with STOL (Short Take Off and Landing) kits installed for use as bush planes. If it works for getting in and out of remote areas where the closest thing you have to a runway is a small field or sandbar in a river it'll damn sure be useful after Zday.
