Curtiss Jenny JN-4D
The Curtiss JN-4D was the major production version of the famous World War I Jenny trainer.
The Curtiss JN-4D was the major production version of the famous World War I Jenny trainer. At war's end, thousands of 90 hp OX-5 powered US JN-4D and Canadian built JN-4CAN were declared surplus and sold to civilian buyers at give-away prices. Offering inexpensive flight to the average public, the Jenny marks the beginning of general aviation. (Among Jenny owners was a young man named Charles Lindbergh.)*
