The use of aircraft in the role of an air observation post had its origins during the First World War. This tradition carried on during World War Two, where several American designed light aircraft were utilised in this role. These aircraft featured a tandem-cockpit accommodation which made them ideal for their roles as a reconnaissance aircraft.  While the American force lent heavily on the L4 Grasshopper, the British relied on the Taylorcraft designed Auster AOP.
