Babcock Series 1 biplane



Babcock Series 1 – McCabe Swastika A

Under Construction

I currently have only limited information on this biplane and no known photo online:

Built in 1927, it was a two place, open cockpit, biplane equipped with an OX-5 Curtiss 90 HP engine. Wingspan 40 feet, 2 inches, length 24 feet, 7 inches. [1]

Sold to a Bernard C. McCabe in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, changed the name to McCabe Swastika A, registration NC7140. Reported to have torn the left wings off in early 1930, registration cancelled 16-Feb-1933 [1]

If anyone has further information on this biplane, feel free to contact me.
