Wright F / Tin Cow / Burgess-Wright F

Wright F

The 1913 Wright F, or Tin Cow, was the first of the fuselage models, but it still retained wing-warping and two chain-driven propellers.

Although this designation is often seen applied to the Model B built under license by Burgess as their model F, only one was ever produced by the Wrights, delivered in 1914 to US Signal Corps as SC39.

W.Burgess built the Burgess-Wright F in 1911.
