Standard J I

  • Aviatik IMG said:
    This is not a Curtiss JN Canuck. It is a Standard J.I. There is no stagger to the wing struts, wings are not equal span, and no radiator. The engine is an inline six, probably a Hall-Scott, instead of the OX-5 or Hispano-Suiza Vee-eight engines of the Jenny.
  • Stig Jarlevik said:
    There is another photo in Hester's collection showing the nose of this aircraft and the written text states L6 Standard which I take as ref to the Hall Scott L6 engine. Well done Aviatik Stig
  • Aviatik IMG said:
    Look at the undercarriage legs. They have three struts per side... again, not a Curtiss design feature. Curtiss had a double vee strut, one vee per side. On this photo, there are front and aft... and one in the center.
  • Stig Jarlevik said:
    I have never questioned this photo and agree with your comments. I just made an extra comment to show where the L 6 came from. Stig

Wally Timm

    Beautiful shot for memory
  • TVL1970 said:
    Wally Timm is on the left side of the frame, with his hand on the propeller. Jim Hester is on the right side of the frame, just in front of the port-side wing.

Hester working on Standard J with an L-6 Hall-Scott engine, 1920

  • Stig Jarlevik said:
    The L-6 reference is to its engine, a Hall-Scott L6, otherwise it was pretty much a standard Standard J model... :-) Stig
