If a pink elephant was flying at an altitude of 2000 feet..?
Would it beat the average air speed of an un ladened swallow?

No. A pink elephant is not very aerodynamic. Everywhere at his flappy ears, his wrinkled skin and his funny body protrusions swirls of air would form, slowing down his flight.
The faster he tried to fly, the more powerful those swirls would get. Near speed of an unladen swallow, these swirls would detach themselved from the elephant and form tornados.
That being said, I can only speculate that all the tornados over Kansas are caused by flying pink elephants. These are probably created by drunken hallucinating people in Texas and then drift north with the upper atmospheric winds.

It would, assuming you want the elephant to stay airborne. It’ll have to fly fast enough to ‘fall’ with the curving of the Earth. Think of it like a satellite, they need to go very fast or else they’ll fall from their orbit, so in essence their falling, but because of their tangential speed, they don’t drop in altitude from the Earth.

Would that be an African Swallow or a European Swallow?

Must be a European swallow. African swallows aren’t migratory.

It would depend if the pachyderm were creating wind sheer.

I think it’s a question of weight ratios!
