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.
