Piper L-4 "Grasshopper"
The L-4 was a light observation and liason aircraft, adapted for military use from the Piper "Cub," a popular private airplane developed in the late 1930s. The primary difference between the civil and military versions is the enlarged window area in the rear cabin to allow better observation. Produced in various models, the L-4 was used by both the U.S. Army and Navy, whose designation for the aircraft was NE-1.
