Photo Comment

A military trainer developed from an earlier civil design (GA-21M), the GA-26 had a tandem cockpit and full span trailing edge wing flaps that could be operated automatically or manually. Failing to win a contract, the aircraft was bought by the Meyers Aircraft Company in 1941 just for the Warner Scarab radial engine. The GA-26 was pushed aside until rediscovered in Michigan. Sold to Niagara Frontier Aviation and Space Museum in 1978 who backed a restoration, it's pictured on display at the museum's Airport terminal location.
