Why call it a Goose?

Featured Replies

Columban changed the name of the Cricket to Cri-Cri.

So why didn't Grumman start calling their survival bush plane a Goo-Goo?

Roy Grumman chose names of sea birds for his early designs - duck, goose, gulfhawk, mallard, widgeon, albatross, etc. even the martlet.

The aircraft is called cricri because it is the nickname of one of Columban’s daughters, Christine.
