The Custer Channel Wing Corporation was an American aircraft manufacturer that specialized in the design of aircraft utilizing the Channel wing. The company was active between 1951 and the 1970s.Willard Ray Custer filed a United States patent in 1929 for a wing design incorporating a semi-circular channel or half barrel shape in which an engine was to be fitted in pusher mode. Custer claimed that this layout, the Custer Channel Wing, which gave STOL operating capabilities, resulted in a design which is not an airplane. It does not plane the air to fly, rather it brings the air to the lift surfaces and reduces pressure to fly at 8 to 11 mph .
