This is one of the very few still flying TG2A WWII Training Gliders in existence. This photo was taken at the Columbus Airport. The TG-3A is a two-place, dual control glider manufactured by the Schweizer Aircraft Company for the Army Air Force during WWII. Students received about six hours dual instruction in the TG-3A before being trained in the CG-4A cargo glider.

Good morning Jinxy. Thanks for the pic. Not much room inside there, from training in this tiny thing to the big ones must have been quite a leap!

Cool! I will have to make a trip to Columbus. I had no idea that such a museum existed.
