The Schweizer SGU 1-19 and Schweizer SGU 1-20 are a family of United States single-seat high-wing strut-braced utility gliders built by Schweizer Aircraft of Elmira New York. The 1-19 was a 1944 development of the pre-war SGU 1-7 and bears a strong resemblance to the earlier craft. It was designed for single place training and soaring flights. The 1-20 was an improved version of the 1-19 with a wingspan of 43 feet (13 m) replacing the 36-foot (11 m) wing on the 1-19.
