Various references give a total production of around 1,000 to 1,600.
Many different engines applied. This is the OX-5. |
Air & Space Museum
"More than 10,000 of these V-8 engines were manufactured, most of them for use in Curtiss JN-4 Jenny trainers. After World War I, thousands of OX-5s and Jennies were sold to the public at a fraction of their original cost to the government. In addition, during the 1920s, the OX-5 engine powered airplanes developed for civil aircraft by Waco, Laird, Curtiss, Fairchild, Alexander, Travel Air, and many other firms." Doesn't look like a Jenny so we'll just have to slog through every other US aircraft of the 1920's I guess |
Could be a WACO 10?

'Expanding' on Chevvron's idea, most likely the Gribovsky G-11.

Good enough, it's actually the G29 but the two seem to be all but identical.
|
Chevvron gave me the inspiration to look at gliders - control to him please. :ok:
|
Thank you and Open House. I never even knew the Soviets built gliders apart from recreational ones; I assmed it would be an American development!
|
|
I've seen that pic - but where? Looks a bit like the Convair Sea dart but I 'm sure the tail was different..............
|
Looks like a canard; SAAB Gripen?
|
Neither the Sea Dart nor the Gripen! Neither American nor Swedish.

French Nord 1500 Griffon
