Fairchild 45A


The prototype Fairchild 45 first flew in 1935 powered by a 225hp(168kW) Jacobs and was intended for the business transport market. The more powerful Model 45A was very expensive to build and production was terminated in 1938. Four Model 45A’s survive and at least one remains airworthy.
