Crawford CLM 1931 all metal, single engine, high-wing transport based on the German Junkers F.13 type wing, produced by Crawford All Metal Aircraft & Motor Company, Los Angeles, California. Powered by a Wright Whirlwind radial air-cooled engine of approximately 220 hp. Unique in its close spaced enclosed landing gear, with large landing lights installed in the forward part. Only one produced and there were no production orders.[1] Evaluated by the Mexican Air Force.[2] One photo from Museum of Alaska Transportation & Industry would seem to indicate that the one prototype was sold to an Alaskan bush plane operator.[3]
