Circa 1924 a single-place 180hp Hisso powered acer, named Miss Wichita, was built.

Each one of the first batch of New Swallows built by Stearman in late 1923 was different since there were no plans until Stearman put things on paper. At first they used Laird’s lofting method of laying out everything on the floor full-size, then modified and altered at will.

The Racer is a clipped-wing version, with plain ailerons (elephant-ears came later) and vertical cabanes. Engines were whatever was on hand and this appears to be the big Hisso.

It could be the very one used by Walt Beech to win the Efficiency Race.

The 1924 New Swallow was designed by Lloyd and Waverly Stearman and Walter Beech as the first production of the new company, and differed from the Laird-Swallow in cowled motor, split axle, and single-bay wings. Price varies from $3,500 and $2,750 in 1925, and $2,485 in 1926. About 50 were built, production ending in 1926.

Six Swallow Mailplane were built in 1926 for Varney Air Lines. Single-place, they were powered by a 160hp Curtiss C-6 Conqueror engine. Featuring one-piece wings and inverted-V cabane struts, they were repowered with 225hp Wright J-4b engines.

The Swallow Aircraft J5 Swallow, or Whirlwind Swallow, of 1928 (ATC 51) three-place open biplane was powered by a Wright J-5 engine. Priced at $8,500, optional were metal prop, brakes, larger fuel tank, and custom paint.
