Another view of the Hadrian that overshot on landing. Note the lack of wing dihedral and the wheel undercarriage. Some Hadrians jettisoned their wheels on take-off and landed on plywood skids. The strut-braced wings had wooden spars and ribs, were sheathed with thin ply and covered in fabric. All control surfaces were fabric covered.

Mr White at the controls of a Hadrian in India in June 1945. The caption on the back of the print notes that the outside temperature was 110 Ft but it was 160 Ft inside the glider!

The Hadrian was fitted with dual controls and in this photograph Mr White, right, is presumably giving dual instruction to the other pilot. Both are wearing winter dress. The towrope attachment point may be seen in the centre of the windscreen area.
