Curtiss N-9H

Curtiss N-9H

A Curtiss N-9H on display at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center of the Smithsonian. The N-9H was a seaplane version of the famous Curtiss JN-4D trainer used by the U.S. Air Service during World War I. The addition of a large central pontoon and small floats under each wingtip required a 3-meter (10-foot) increase in wingspan to compensate for the added weight.
