The front fuselage section of replica eight-seat General Aircraft GAL-48 Hotspur II training glider. This 1940-designed type was much used throughout the war to train pilots and crews for the airborne landings to come, which used larger gliders. No Hotspurs survived and this replica is painted in accurate markings of the period and is fully fitted out internally.
