Looks like a civilian version of the WWII-era L-5?
“Looks like a Piper Cub. If so, its the same airplane I learned how to fly when I was 16. MANY moons ago in Waukegan IL.” [BradyLS, post 10]
Afraid not. The L-5, made by Stinson, was adapted from their 108 series. Wider, taller, more window area than the aircraft in the bridge forced landing.
