The year 1919 was memorable in the history of aviation for the first successful flight across the Atlantic, achieved by aviators of the United States Navy using NC flying boats, jointly developed by the United States Navy and the Curtiss Engineering Corporation, the N in the designation standing for navy and the C for Curtiss.

Whether equipped with floats as a seaplane or with a landing gear, the Standard twin- motored seaplane is of a size that is commonly termed a battle plane. It has a total weight of 2 1/2 tons fully loaded and, at an economical speed, has a cruising range of 450 miles. The fuel tanks, carried [...]]]></description>

The chief distinguishing feature of the Gallaudet seaplane is the employment a four-blade propeller acting as a pusher in connection with a fuselage design similar in most respects to the tractor type.

Perhaps the most remarkable achievement of 1912 was the Curtiss flying-boat. Glenn Curtiss, who won the James Gordon Bennett race in 1909, had succeeded in rising from the water in 1913 with a similar biplane fitted with a central pontoon float instead of a wheeled under-carriage. This he made into a genuine  flying-boat, consisting [...]]]></description>

In its wing plan, the Burgess scout seaplane, resembles a sesquiplane, such as the Nieuport, in that the lower  wings are so much shorter than the upper that it is almost a monoplane with auxiliary wings. It is also distinguished by the elimination of interplane  struts, their place being taken by two flat [...]]]></description>
