Brief History of Aviation

The Aeronca Model 7 Champion was a two-seat high-wing cabin monoplane, used by the military as a liaison/artillery spotter aircraft, and in general aviation. Immediately after World War II, the US Lightplane market experienced a boom and Aeronca's Champion proved extremely successful.

Based off of the T-60 Soviet Tank the Antonov A-40 KT barely got off the ground....If there would have been a powerful enough tow plane it may have been Air Cargo Company for heavy goods successful, but the planes the Soviets did have were thought to be of better service in the frontline. As well the development of larger gliders, and transports put an end to the Antonov A-40 KT.
