    When I was a kid, in the early 80s, I worked with Bill Horn at the Silent Wings Museum, on the Municipal Airport in Terrell TX. At the time, he had one of only 3 restored CG4As in existence. It was 95% Airworthy with exception of 5 outer Wing Ribs in the Right Wing. The Museum has since moved but, during my time there we acquired enough Wing Ribs to build almost 2 pairs of Wings and, I helped dismantling a CG4A Nose Section he had acquired for a future restoration. It's a HIGHLY VALUED and rather unique experience for a 12 and 13 year old youngster.There was also provisions made to do a Flying Recovery of these Gliders from the Field. They set up the Tow Rope on two Poles and a C46, with a Wench and a Spool/Clutch Mechanism would hook the Rope and pull them into the Air. Somewhere there's US Army Video of this Process. It was filmed by a Man sitting on top of the C47 with somebody holding his Legs from inside the removed Navigation Dome. I had the Honor, and first hand confirmation of this, FROM the Man who filmed it. It was an AMAZING STORY and quite the Operation 😳

    Technically, any engine with the canted valves and the spark plug in the middle is a "hemi". It's also called a "pentroof" design. Although the heads on my 2005 1200 Sportster have a hemispherical design, HD calls it a "bathtub". The heads on the 2.4L in my 2016 Patriot are exotic...DOHC, four valves per cylinder, dual variable valve timing, and the spark plug located in the center of the pentroof. It's a big Hayabusa engine! Chrysler got the idea from the aircraft engine builders.

    In the New Guinea highlands in 1945, 3 Waco CG4 gliders were used to rescue the 3 survivors of a C-47 Dakota. The gliders each landed, loaded s survivor and then set-up two poles about 30 feet high, with a tow rope looped between them and hooked-up to the glider. Then a C-47 flew low overhead, trailing a pole with a large hook on the end - which snared the loop and hauled the glider off the ground, for a tow to an Allied airfield. See the newsreel story “Rescue from Shangri-La”. (Kym in Darwin, Australia)
