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."
