used while those engines on the wings were carefully faired with the surface of the wing. Due the central engine being positioned relatively high above the ground, it was fitted with hand-turning gear, while the outboard propellers, which were within reach from the ground, permitted the starting of the outboard engines simply by swinging their propellers. The aircraft was designed to fly on any two of its three engines, as well as to cruise at sufficiently low power expenditure that engine failures were believed to be relatively uncommon to occur. It was therefore claimed that it was unlikely that any Cruiser would even find itself having to perform a forced landing.

structural design. When configured as a freighter, which involved the removal of the cabin furnishings, the aircraft could carry a payload of 1,000 lb, or 2.78 lb per horsepower. In such a configuration, the aircraft could achieve an endurance of six hours and a cruising range of approximately 700 miles, although the payload could be increased beyond this if the distance of the journey was shortened. The aircraft was, even when fully loaded, capable of gaining altitude with any one of its three engines stopped.

The cabin of the Cruiser was relatively well arranged. Comfortable seating was arranged along the sides of the cabin while lighting was provided via a combination of lights within the roof as well as the side windows, the latter permitted a generous external view to the passengers. A single gangway

Fuel was housed within two primary tanks located within the wing between the primary spars; each tank had capacity of 60 gallons (273 liters). However, these tanks were not typically completely full, particularly when the aircraft was configured to carry passengers; instead, they would only contain

inverted inline piston engines, two of which were mounted on the wings while the third engine was installed within the nose of the aircraft. Dependent upon customer preferences, alternative engines could be fitted of similar power output and general characteristics. Steel tube engine mountings were

The original three-engined low-wing layout had been retained, however, the plywood fuselage was substituted for by an all-metal fuselage that could accommodate six passengers and two crew. 438:. To mitigate against the failure of a single pump, a cross connection permitted each engine to be supplied by another pump. The oil tanks were located in the fairings behind each engine. 1414: 198:. Due to the close ties between Saro and Spartan Aircraft, the development of the aircraft was transferred to Spartan, and the aircraft was re-designated again as the 330:, although this did not extent to its shape.
