Temco-Completed Globe Swifts GC-1B

Swift-GC-1B

– Compiled by Jim Montague –

 

Note: The 2000 s/n Swifts were built by Temco for Globe in 1946 as “standard Swifts”. By the end of 1946 approximately 224 of this series were sold. The remainder, up to s/n 2329,  were sold as orders came in. Many had their first test flight in 1947 or 1948. The airplanes that were built in 1946 but not flown or sold until later have “PC401″ stamped on the data plate in the block for date of manufacture. The airplanes that were sold in 1947 or 1948  are shown as “Temco GC-1B’s” in their paperwork as well as 1947 or 1948 as the date of manufacture.
