4 place glider
"Akron, Ohio: Honors the citizens of Akron and the first towed glider
flight from Akron to Columbus carrying U.S. Mail in a Gross 4-place glider in 1935." This text copied from a listing on Google (Searched under Gross-4 glider) of Soaring honors. Text came from a document in the Soaring Museum. Purdue University gliding club is reported to have bought one in 1937. Soaring magazine reports in 1938 that Purdue had this 4 seater and a 2 seater in their club inventory. Anyone know a person who was a member of the Purdue club in 1938? Would have to be about 85, at least.
