General Characteristics

The Stinson Reliant was a popular single-engine, high-wing civilian monoplane produced in the 1930s. The AT-19 designation refers to the version pressed into service during World War II, mostly under Lend-Lease agreements, for the British Royal Navy (as the Reliant Mk I) in a utility transport role.

Design and Powerplant

  • Engine: One Lycoming R-680-E3, Pratt & Whitney Wasp Junior, or similar radial piston engine (depending on the specific sub-variant).
  • Power Output: Approx. 220–450 hp (varies by engine type; 450 hp for the larger engine models).
  • Configuration: High-wing braced monoplane with fixed main landing gear (later variants had retractable gear, but the military AT-19 was based on the fixed-gear SR-10).
  • Key Feature: The distinctive, often fixed, main landing gear covered by aerodynamic fairings, giving it a sturdy appearance.
  • Construction: Fabric-covered welded steel tube fuselage and fabric-covered wooden wings.

Performance and Service

  • Maximum Speed: 257 km/h (160 mph).
  • Cruise Speed: 241 km/h (150 mph).
  • Operational Range: Approximately 1,300 km (800 miles).
  • Service Ceiling: 5,500 m (18,000 ft).
  • Wartime Service: Over 500 AT-19s were delivered to the Royal Navy under Lend-Lease, serving primarily as navigational and radio trainers for Fleet Air Arm pilots.
  • Post-War: Many were sold off commercially, often used by smaller airlines and private owners, leading to the aircrafts continued visibility well after the war.
