And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
this is an unpowered glider; MC-1 from the albert criz co. of san fernando ca. first registered 7/19/1943. only one prototype built. crew of two. assalt glider prototype competing with Waco and others. probably did not win a contract because of the use of strategic materials and costs. looks very close to being a flying wing however the lack of wing sweep (al la Northrup) precluded the use of elevons and hence the tail surfaces
