摘要

描述

A U.S. Navy Curtiss N2C-2 Fledgling at the National Museum of Naval Aviation in Pensacola, Florida (USA), in 1983.
Official description: "The museum's N2C-2 Fledgling was acquired and restored in Navy colors by Roy Reagan of Chico, California, who donated the aircraft to the museum in 1983. It is painted in the markings of the Bureau Number A-8529, which beginning in 1930 served at Quantico, Virginia, and Navy Reserve Air Base (NRAB) Grosse Ile, Michigan, before being stricken from the Navy's inventory and transferred to the Army Air Corps in 1939.

As late as the mid-1920s, flight students at Naval Air Station (NAS) Pensacola, Florida, completed at least part of their training in N-9 seaplanes, the same aircraft in which their World War I predecessors learned to fly. The Navy sought to remedy this situation through the procurement of a new generation of primary trainers, including the N2C Fledgling, which won a 1928 Navy design competition for new training platforms. Yet, the aircraft hardly appeared "cutting edge" when it first rolled off the assembly line, the maze of struts and wires on the wings more than that on a wartime Curtiss Jenny! As was the procedure at that time with the design of naval aircraft, the prototypes were delivered in both landplane and seaplane configurations, and provided tandem seating for student and instructor. All told, the Navy accepted 51 production versions of the aircraft (31 N2C-1s and 20 N2C-2s), the majority of which were assigned not to Pensacola, but to Naval Reserve Air Bases throughout the country. During their service, one N2C became the only Navy aircraft to ever be outfitted with a unique 170 horsepower Curtiss Challenger engine featuring twin rows of six cylinders each. In addition, a handful were fitted with tricycle landing gear and radio controls for use as target drones. In this capacity, on 14 September 1938, one of these drones performed a simulated dive-bombing attack against the battleship USS Utah (BB 31), the unintentional but nevertheless first demonstration of an air to surface missile."
