Historical information and usage

The RWD-8 is a Polish training aircraft, designed in the 1930s by the RWD team (Rogalski, Wigura, Drzewiecki) and produced in series by both the Polish Aviation Works and the State Aviation Works PWS. It was primarily used for pilot training, as well as a liaison and courier aircraft. After the outbreak of World War II, some examples were taken into service by the Hungarian and Romanian air forces. These aircraft were used during the interwar period and at the beginning of World War II, forming the basis for military pilot training.
