Edward Margański, Jerzy Cisowski and
Jerzy Makula developed the Swift at
Bielsko-Biała from the
SZD-21-2b Kobuz 3. The prototype first flew in 1991. The glider is made of glass-fibre epoxy composite. It is very strong (stressed for plus and minus 10g) and manoeuvrable (a roll takes less than 4 seconds). Larger tips to increase the span to 15m were designed but not made. It has a retractable
undercarriage. ==Specifications==
