Product Description
The Waco CG-4 was the most widely used United States troop or cargo military glider of World War II. It was designated the CG-4 by the United States Army Air Forces and named Hadrian in British military service.
Designed by the Waco Aircraft Company, flight testing began in May 1942, and eventually more than 13,900 CG-4As were delivered. The CG-4A was constructed of fabric-covered wood and metal and was crewed by a pilot and copilot. It had two fixed mainwheels and a tailwheel. The factories ran 24-hour shifts to build the gliders.
