The Alliance A-1 Argo was an American-built two-seat biplane of the late 1920s.
DevelopmentThe Alliance Aircraft Corp of Alliance, Ohio was formed in 1928 by a reorganisation of the Hess Aircraft Co. The firm designed the A-1 Argo as a sturdy two-seat open-cockpit biplane for operation by private pilot owners. The Warrior seven-cylinder engine was designed and produced in the same factory at Alliance.[1] Operational historyBecause of the difficult economic climate then existing, only 20 A-1 Argos were completed. Alliance Aircraft then went into bankruptcy in 1930, being reformed briefly as the Warrior Aeronautical Corporation before that organization also foundered later the same year.[1] Several Argo biplanes continued in operation by private owners until curtailment of civil flying in the USA in 1941. Two aircraft survived in mid-2009 of which NC2M is maintained in airworthy condition by Greg Herrick's Golden Wings Air Museum at Anoka County-Blaine Airport near Minneapolis, Minnesota, and can be visited by prior arrangement.[2] The Ohio History Connection displays a static A-1 Argo on the plaza level of the Ohio History Center. This particular aircraft was constructed in August 1929 by the Alliance Aircraft Corporation of Alliance, Ohio.[3] An Alliance Argo, N2M, is listed on the FAA Registry as serial number 108 built in 1929. This aircraft is owned by the Yellowstone Aviation Inc. in Jackson, Wyoming under a corporation listing.[4] Specifications{{aerospecs|ref=Aerofiles |met or eng?=eng |crew=1 |capacity=1 passenger |length m=6.1 |length ft=20 |length in=0 |span m=8.74 |span ft=28 |span in=8 |swept m= |swept ft= |swept in= |rot number= |rot dia m= |rot dia ft= |rot dia in= |dia m= |dia ft= |dia in= |width m= |width ft= |width in= |height m= |height ft= |height in= |wing area sqm= |wing area sqft= |swept area sqm= |swept area sqft= |rot area sqm= |rot area sqft= |volume m3= |volume ft3= |aspect ratio= |wing profile= |empty weight kg= |empty weight lb= |gross weight kg=295 |gross weight lb=650 |lift kg= |lift lb= |eng1 number=1 |eng1 type=Hess Warrior seven-cylinder radial |eng1 kw=93 |eng1 hp=125 |eng1 kn= |eng1 lbf= |eng1 kn-ab= |eng1 lbf-ab= |eng2 number= |eng2 type= |eng2 kw= |eng2 hp= |eng2 kn= |eng2 lbf= |eng2 kn-ab= |eng2 lbf-ab= |max speed kmh=192 |max speed mph=120 |max speed mach= |cruise speed kmh=164 |cruise speed mph=102 |stall speed kmh=71 |stall speed mph=44 |range km=563-644 |range miles=350-400 |endurance h= |endurance min= |ceiling m= |ceiling ft= |g limits= |roll rate= |glide ratio= |climb rate ms= |climb rate ftmin= |sink rate ms= |sink rate ftmin= }} References
