Please view the attached scans for the content and quality of the scans of this manual!! This manual was issued by the AAF and contains information relative to tactics and technique involved in the operational employment of the military glider! Manual starts by giving information about successful operations in different battles and advantages and disadvantages of using gliders. Then Glider pilots and Tow-plane pilots are discussed as related to flight training and success is based on these brave men being well trained and doing everything right. Navigation is a must for the glider pilots to be able to put the glider down where it needs to be and for the tow-plane pilots to be in complete cooperation with the glider pilots. Ground crews are discussed as being crucial to getting the glider hooked up quickly and maintaining the gliders so they are always ready to go. Planning airborne operations using gliders is discussed and all the different factors are listed which may affect the entire operation. Day and Night operation is discussed, as related to ease and difficulties of each. Communication between glider and tow plane is vital to complete success. Loading the CG-4A is discussed with the different items that can be hauled in it. Taking off is discussed as related to timed take offs of several gliders and which aircraft can tow the CG-4A. Glider crew signals are given and coordination between ground crews and pilots is discussed in detail. Different take off patterns are illustrated including double tows. Flight formations are discussed and illustrated along with landings and approach patterns. Landing areas are discussed and illustrated as also related to the type of gear on the glider. The recovering of gliders is discussed and illustrated relating to being able to recover and reuse gliders by a aircraft being able to snag a glider in flight. The Utility uses of gliders are discussed as being able to evacuate personnel, wounded, first aid stations, weather stations, photographic stations, radar, etc.
