Description
Designed by R.S.Johnson in 1940, the Swift’s birth is not without its complexities. With the intervention of WW2, the design did not actually reach certification until May, 1946 when it had been the subject of several design modifications carried out by K.H. “Bud” Knox. In the late 40’s Globe was to become insolvent and Temco acquired the type certificate and went on to build further aircraft. Full production ceased in 1951 but spare parts and service items continued to be produced by Universal Aircraft Industries until 1979.
This model is based on the original “A” version.

Version 1.0.8 – 18/08/2022
Changes :
– Ensured that the engine driven alternator actually turns on if you use the cold dark start switch or use the aircraft selector from the developer menu to switch to the swift.
Version 1.0.7 – 05/08/2022
Changes:
- Raised the height of the plane a little when on the ground so it doesnt sink in. This also fixed an issue where if you are going offroad the grass would show through the floor. Globe swifts are NOT adventure bikes 😛
- Turn ball issue is put back to the release. – research.
Added:
Persistance for the following:
* sound knob will remember your setting. So beware of this. It is set to 90 % change it to your requirement and it will stay at that percentage for your next flight etc.
* Copilot hider. If you like to fly alone this option will be persistant.
