US Naval Aviation Training Division
RAF Royal Air Force General "HAMILCAR" glider
Aeroplane identification poster
63x47cm
A particularly unusual style of aeroplane identification poster, owing to the very arty images. Most such posters rely on very plain silhouettes, this series - and we have several in this series - have a much more arty approach to the task with shading and an interesting angle view.
The Hamilcar glider - of which 344 were produced - was used only three times. Operation Overlord (D-Day landings), Operation Market Garden (the failed push through to create a salient in Germany by crossing the Rhine) in September 1944, and Operation Varsity (crossing the Rhine in March 1945). Capable of carrying troops, guns and even light tanks, the glider was an important part of the airborne division's strategy supporting the paratroopers.
