Comments: The JN4H model of the famous Curtiss "Jenny" used the more powerful and more reliable Hisso
engine, replacing the earlier version OX5. The drawing number, 34889,
applied to both the 150HP and 180HP Hisso. The "P.P. 190" refers to "Paragon
Propeller", and was an assigned designation for the American Propeller Company. An excellent history of the Jenny is available on the National Air and Space Museum website. Wood: Oak Length: 8'6" |
