Aircraft ID. Please

Hello everyone,

Could someone please tell me what type of aircraft this is.

I assume circa 1941 Southern Aviation School / Maxwell Field. My father was RAF and trained in Canada and the US.

Cheers,
Chris

Thank-you Papa Lima,

I was just wondering what it might have been used for at that time ??

One was converted into a sort-of Spitfire replica some years ago…

It started life as a pilotless drone!
It may have sunsequently used for training but I would doubt it as it never carried more than one pilot!

Culver Cadet. Small but great performance from a 65 to 75 HP engine.
