The L-3 series of liaison
and observation aircraft (originally
designated 0-58) were based on the pre-war Tandem Trainer
and Chief models. The aircraft was declared obsolete before
the US entered WW2 so the type did not see active service.
A version of the basic
airframe with an extended fuselage in
place of the engine was used as a training glider under the
designation TG-5.
A modernised aircraft,
the Model 7 Champion was produced
post-war to take advantage of the temporary general aviation
boom and proved very successful. A militarised model known
as the L-16 was used extensively by the USAF including active
service in Korea.
This CD contains two
flight manuals for the L-3 series, a nearly
complete set of USAF Flight and maintenance manuals for the
L-16 series, and the manufacturers manual for the civil
Champion model. The CD has been scanned from the original
flight manuals and retains any colour pages.
