THREE CURTISS MACHINES      From the bottom to the top the aeroplanes appear to be as follows: The Curtiss "KITTEN"; a single passenger, short-span version of the JN-4D "JENNY", The "Standard" JN-4D "JENNY"and a Twin engined, long-span version of the JN-4D "JENNY".      These machines in the same photo would date the picture to 1917 or 1918, and the location would probably be either the Hammondsport, N.Y. or Toronto, Canada Curtiss factory. Cheers, C.F. Gray Editor's Note: The identification of these three planes was kindly provided by Carroll Gray. I invite you to visit his impressive and comprehensive website at: THE EARLY BIRDS OF AVIATION
