Curtiss JN-4 "Jenny"

For all romantic scale freaks Proctor developed the Curtiss Jenny . Everything is with this kit but methanol and fabric. It took more than 1500 hours to finish the design and the design for the manufacturing tools. In addition another 2500 hours were spent to test the prototype.

All parts forming a sub-assembly are packed in one bag. You will find all fairings pre-shaped, 60 (sixty) turnbuckles incl. the rigging wires and a scale dummy of the OX-5 engine.

For the kit as usual with Proctor they have used only selected woods und veneers. Wing tips and leading edges from the empennage are pre- bent and ready to be installed.

To cut rigging time at the field the upper and lower wing of each side (LH and RH) will be left fully rigged up. They may be installed / disassembled to the cabane and fuselage as they are without any further disassembly.

The flight performance may be described as: Do not pick up flowers during flight. Low and very …very slow approaches are one of Jenny’s favourites but she likes to do turns also. When you do low and slow approaches you will foe sure remember the time of the golden twenties and the legendary Wing Walkers.
