Well known photo of N33340 used in many magazine ads in the '40's.

Jim Montague received this fine study of N2436B & 3 other Temco Swifts (could one be Jim's N2431B?)
from Aubrey Simmons ex-Globe & Temco employee.


First all-metal Swift, serial number 2, with some admirers...

The photos above and below are Temco factory photos of Temco Swift N78225. According to Swift Historian Jim Montague... "It was used by Temco as an experimental airplane for a while and was the prototype for the flat shelf and "new look". N78225 is owned today by Randy Brubaker of Traer, Iowa and looks as good as ever. It was also featured on the Thompson Calendar for 1948. Many ads in the '40's magazines used those pics and I have noted the smooth skin wings before, however before it left Temco a regular set of beaded skin wings was installed."
