Centrair were building the ASW-20 under license, not the ASW-19. All
ASW-20Fs were built by Centrair. The Pegase fuselage is almost identical
to the 20: the boom is slightly bigger diameter (an ASW-20 tail dolly
won't quite fit a Pegase) ...


I'm pretty sure that when I was flying at Le Blanc we used tail
dollies interchangeably between Pegases and ASW-20s. Of course, they
might all have been Pegase ones, on reflection ...
