Built in 1919 and registered as NC853. When the museum received the aircraft, the only existing piece was the fuselage. Volunteers were able to restore it and build new wings, etc. to produce this beautiful display. The Curtiss Museum also has an extensive collection of motorcycles and automobiles just a few of which are visible in the photo.

This is a replica of the Curtiss June Bug built by the Mercury Aircraft Co. of Hammondsport, NY in 1976. It flew multiple times, and still has a current FAA registration. On loan to the Glenn H. Curtiss Museum. The original June Bug flew in 1908, and was the first a/c with ailerons and tricycle landing gear. The first aeronautical prize, the Scientific American Cup, was won by the June Bug on 4 July 1908. The cup (and $25,000!) was awarded for accomplishing the first public flight over 1 kilometre (.61 mi.)

Slide taken in outdoor aircraft display area at the original USAF Museum site. The X-3 was transferred to the museum in 1956, and is now on display inside the current museum. The X-3 never reached its potential due to underpowered engines, but it did contribute data on high speed stability issues. The X-3 wing design was used on both the Lockheed F-104 and the North American X-15.
