Add to SetSummary
The Curtiss Eagle airplane appeared soon after World War I. Its fuselage, with a streamlined profile and monocoque construction, was advanced for its time. The fully enclosed cabin offered comfort for the pilot and up to seven passengers. Curtiss built Eagles in tri, twin, and single-motor versions, but overall production numbers were small.
