Curtiss D-III,1912

Curtiss D-III at the Smithsonian Institution National Air and Space Museum. The pusher biplane design developed by Glenn H. Curtiss between 1909 and 1912 was among the most successful and important aircraft of the pioneer era. On May 29, 1909, the G.H. Curtiss Manufacturing Company delivered the firm's first airplane to the New York Aeronautical Society. This airplane, called the Golden Flyer because of its golden-yellow silk covering and the orange shellac coating on the wood, was the first sale of an airplane to a civil owner in the United States. The Aeronautical Society purchased the airplane from Curtiss for $5,000, with the added stipulation that Curtiss teach two of its members to fly.
