Curtiss JN-4

The Curtiss JN (Jenny) was the marriage of the Model J trainer by B.D. Thomas of Sopwith and Curtiss' own Model N, hence the designation "JN". The original JN-1 was followed by small numbers of the JN-2 in 1915. The first large-scale order was for the JN-3, of which eight-six were built in the US and eighteen in Canada.

The JN-4 became the major type -- a trainer for almost all US pilots and many overseas as well. Over five and a half thousand were built and they served in both military training and civilian applications long after the war.

It came in many sub-variants, from the basic JN-4 (701 built) through the JN-4D (2664 built), along with related planes like the JN-4H, JN-6, and others.
