Taylorcraft 19

General Aviation and Light Aircraft

The Taylorcraft Model 19 was a postwar light aeroplane that Taylorcraft developed from the BC-12D-4-85, keeping its Continental C-85-12 engine but raising the gross weight to 1,500 pounds. It was certificated under type certificate 1A9, and the owners community records that all the models that followed it, up to the F-21 and F-22, fall under that same certificate. The Wikipedia history of the Taylorcraft B family dates the Model 19 Sportsman to 1951, and the design was revived in 1973 by the reformed Taylorcraft company as the F-19 Sportsman, with a 100 horsepower Continental O-200 engine in place of the C-85. It is therefore the link between the prewar Model B line and the late Taylorcraft designs of the 1970s and 1980s.
