The Waco CG-3A was an American troop carrying and training glider of the Second World War. It was an externally braced high-wing monoplane of fabric-covered wood and steel-tube construction capable of carrying nine fully armed troops each carrying 18 kg of equipment, two of the troops acting as pilot and co-pilot. Originally designed as a troop carrier, the CG-3A was later used for training glider pilots. Research Waco CG-3A
