The Custer CCW-1 and CCW-2 were experimental American aircraft designed around the radical channel wing concept. Created by Willard R. Custer during the 1940s, these airplanes used propellers embedded in semi-circular wing channels to generate lift at extremely low airspeeds. This video explores the full history of the Custer Channel Wing aircraft, from the original idea and first flights to military evaluation, design flaws, and long-term influence on STOL aircraft, powered lift research, and modern experimental aviation concepts.
