ROLE
The Fairchild
Swearingen Metroliner or the Fairchild Aerospace
Metro is a 19-seat, pressurized, twin turboprop airliner first produced
by Swearingen Aircraft and later by Fairchild at a plant in San Antonio,
Texas. Because FAA regulations limited an airliner to no more than 19
seats if no flight attendant was to be carried, the aircraft was optimized
for that number of passengers.
