The Swallow Aeroplane Company
produce the Swallow B in the late 70's to
the early 80's. It is a wire braced single

The Swallow uses aluminum
tube bolt together construction, and the
surface wing and tail are covered in dacron
sail cloth.
Controls on the Swallow are joy stick and
rudder pedals and the wings had a trailing
edge wing warping system rather than true
ailerons.The empty
weight of the planes brought into Canada was
close to 300 lbs when equipped with the
Cayuna 430 R engine. |
