The Swift AIrcraft
Designed and manufactured entirely in the UK, the Swift range of aircraft is economic, comfortable, safe and environmentally sound. The Swift will initially be availabe with both Piston (Swift A) and Electric (Swift E) fuel types. with hybrid (Swift Z), Hydrogen (Swift H) and Ammonia (Swift X) versions as these technologies evolve. Swift is dedicated to providing a number of alternative sustainable solutions to lead in the provision of NetZero GA aircraft in the future.
Features
The Swift is a beautiful two-seater aircraft made up of compound curves and striking elliptical wings, both of which are beneficial to aerodynamics and aesthetics. It’s a highly proficient flight trainer, fully aerobatic with advanced control surfaces and a BRS system. With eye-catching accents and high quality details, the Swift is poised and polished. Its versatile design can house a range of engines and instrument installations and it’s the only aircraft in the GA arena capable of an all-black finish to be operated in the desert.
The Swift presents interior design standards never before seen in this class of aircraft. The extra wide cockpit, ergonomic seating and generous headroom have been designed to give you high levels of comfort without compromising on the beauty of the exterior or shape. This, teamed with a larger than average luggage area capacity makes it the perfect aircraft for touring.

Unparalled comfort
One of the unique aspects of the Swift is the high level of ergonomic design in the cockpit including a wide sliding canopy, which can be slightly open when taxiing, plenty of baggage space, useful additions such as power sockets for your GPS and other electronic devices, cup holders for your water bottles and car style air vents for temperature control.
finely honed controls
The control linkages are via pushrods as opposed to cables for enhanced durability. For ground steering, the Swift has a steerable nose wheel instead of reliance purely on differential braking. However this functionality is also present with toe brakes on the rudder pedals.
composite construction
The Swift is predominantly of glass fibre construction with carbon fibre wing and empennage spars. This enables the use of compound curves that are beneficial for both aerodynamics and aesthetics.
elliptical profile
The wing and tail have a distinctive elliptical profile. The wing section on the Swift has a laminar flow section that is tolerant of bug deposition.
