Built of
aluminium
The airframe is aluminium: sheet metal over a riveted frame, the way most aircraft have been built since the 1940s. The 1-26 has a fabric-covered aft fuselage on early examples. This is how the Schweizer SGS 1 gliders (1-26, 1-34, 1-35, 1-36) family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.
