About the GC-1B

The Swift Museum Foundation GC-1B is a light, single-engine, fixed-wing sport aircraft built in the United States. It features a retractable conventional landing gear layout and accommodates two seats side-by-side. The type is well-suited for recreational flying and sport pilots.

Initially conceived at the start of the decade preceding its introduction, the design went through modifications and changes in manufacturing stewardship following post-war market pressures. Several companies undertook production runs, building hundreds of examples before assembly concluded. Later, support and tooling responsibilities were assumed by a dedicated museum foundation to keep remaining aircraft flying.
