The Curtiss JN Jenny was a series of bi-planes built by the Curtiss Aeroplane Company of Hammondsport, New York beginning in 1915. Although the Curtiss JN series was originally produced as a trainingaircraft for the US Army, the Jenny (the common nickname derived from JN) continued after World War I as a civil aircraft, and it became the backbone of American postwar civil aviation. Pilots foundthe Jenny's stability and slow speed made it ideal for stunt flyingand aerobatic displays in the barnstorming era. Many Jenny's have been restored and are on display in Air Museums all across the nation.

JN-4D Curtiss Jenny
The plastic parts have almost no flash and the decals have good color density. I replaced the seats with some photo-etched ones and I added some other small details. I painted and decaled it in the correct USAAC color scheme. I hope to see more biplanes like this from you guys!
