The Lyrics

Yuri Rossovich designed the primitive WW2 Russian partisan glider called "Taiga". This was a wood, fabric, and tough canvas type glider with a unique set-up that would allow the partisan to launch and fly in a prone position and then pull a lever that would manipulate the central fabric section of the wing to fill up with air and act like a parachute for slow descent while allowing the partisan's legs to lower with a skid for landing. On the wings would be carried tight bundles of partisan weapons. It was intended to be used for re-supply from a partisan high point to a valley below and could easily be disassembled and carried back by partisan groups in segments. It would cut re-supply time down dramatically. AFAIK, only one was made and captured by the Germans who took it back to the SS "Wiesel Werke" in Germany that tried to build an improved tubular steel and synthetic material version called the "Bone" glider (Knochengleiter???) as it was very primitive. The Germans improved the wing mechanism and prone pilot system. I think they might have even added some instrumentation! But again, AFAIK, that was never flown. I have never seen a photo of it. A very rare and interesting WW2 craft...
Taiga sent to WiW
German find

Partisan glider found by troops
Rossovich designin’
Meant for flyin’

WiW would modify this bandit
Tubular steel sound
Wing mechanism was better
German prone pilot could easily set it down

Taiga sent to WiW
German find
Re-designed

It never flew
It never flew
It never flew
Bone glider prototype
Built here and there
Under SS secrecy
Complicated flight

Not meant to be
Taiga sent to WiW
German find
(German complexity)



MIGHT have looked something like this German experimental in appearance while under construction: http://discaircraft.greyfalcon.us/picturest/g1.jpg

Would have been tough finding a safe place to launch a glider when operating behind German lines. I did see those fellows in Norway with the bat wing suits who soar along the mountains, then parachute to a safe landing. So, the idea had some merit.

I think from a history lesson on THC or DC that the Germans used a glider with braking rockets to rescue Mussolini, but I could be wrong!
