What plane am I?

• flickrdownldr said:

  It is either an early Curtiss or a copy of a Curtiss (note mid gap ailerons), and it is a pusher. A tractor has the prop on the front of the engine, while a pusher has it on the back - and this isn't both.

What plane am I? Tractor Pusher

  using the V8 engine and tricycle undercarriage as clues, I'd say it was a Curtiss 1911 Model D

  Curtiss? Looks a lot like the original curtiss with floats!

• flickrdownldr said:

  The single narrow float points toward Curtiss (or a copy thereof) - not all of the various versions were well photographed and there is at least one I know they had no photos of in the books on Curtiss I have read.

• Stig Jarlevik said:

  As said, Curtiss never seemed to use such a V-strut arrangement to attach the central float Stig
