Arrow Aircraft and Motor Corporation was an American aircraft manufacturer based in
Havelock, Nebraska
in the 1920s and 1930s. It built a variety of light sporting aircraft.
History
The Arrow Aircraft Corporation founded on 27 March 1926 in
LeBlond engines.[2] Despite a hope that the increase in defense manufacturing – including a contract with Boeing – might save the company, its assets were later sold at two sheriff's sales in 1940.[3][4][5]
