The Custer CCW-5 is an experimental aircraft designed by Willard Custer in the 1950s. It features a unique channel wing configuration that allows it to take off and land at very low speeds. The channel wing consists of a semi-circular duct that encloses the propeller and creates a venturi effect, increasing the lift and thrust of the aircraft. The Custer CCW-5 was intended to be a versatile and economical aircraft that could be used for various purposes, such as personal transport, agricultural spraying, military operations, and emergency rescue. However, the project faced many technical and financial difficulties, and only two prototypes were built and tested. The Custer CCW-5 never entered production or received certification from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The aircraft is currently on display at the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum in Reading, Pennsylvania.
