Aeronca L - 3 The Aeronca L - 3 group of observation and liaison aircraft were used by the United States Army Air Corps in World War II . The L - 3 series were adapted from Aeronca ' s pre - war Tandem Trainer and Chief models . Design and development . The L - 3 was initially designated the O - 58 at the time it was first ordered by the Air Corps , a designation prefix that was retired in April 1942 . The airplane underwent service tests in the summer of 1941 during maneuvers in Louisiana and Texas . When American forces went into combat after Pearl Harbour , the Army Air Force used the L - 3 in much the same manner as observation balloons were used during World War I — spotting activities and directing artillery fire . It was also used for liaison and transport duties and short - range reconnaissance which required airplanes to land and take off in short distances from unprepared landing strips . Liaison pilots would train on L - 3s before moving on to front - line aircraft like the Piper L - 4 or the Stinson L - 5 . Some L - 3s were shipped to north Africa , and subsequently given to the Free French Forces in the area at the time . At least one of the aircraft served with US forces in Italy . The TG - 5 was a three - seat training glider of 1942 based upon the O - 58 design . This aircraft retained the O - 58 ' s rear fuselage , wings , and tail while adding a front fuselage in place of the engine . In all , Aeronca built 250 TG - 5 gliders for the Army . The Navy received three as the LNR - 1 . Variants . O - 58 designation replaced by L - 3 designation in April 1942 Museum displays . Aside from 17 L - 3s ( 2 L - 3 , 8 L - 3B , and 7 L - 3C ) that remain on the US civil registry as of July 2012 , a number have also found their way into museums
