Good day.
Multiple sources such as publications (Baugher, Andrade...) and Wikipedia itself as well as online references are mentioning multiple Curtiss-built types that has yet to see more light beyond the drawing board. The following designs are as follows:
Curtiss XP-14 - Not much information are prevalent aside from being an in-house build of the Thomas-Morse XP-13 which failed due to issues on the H/R-1640 Chieftain engine.
Curtiss XP-18 - Biplane project built around the Wright IV-1560 engine. Ordered but cancelled due to engine-related issues.
Curtiss XP-19 - Monoplane project built around the Wright IV-1560 engine. Ordered but cancelled due to engine-related issues.
Lost competitor to the Berliner-Joyce P-16 - Baugher's website (as far as I recall) mentioned failed Curtiss and Boeing designs before a requirement that was satisifed by the P-16/PB-1. This could shed light into yet another Boeing type (which I can suspect being the model 206 or double-digit designs such as the 78 and 90)
Are there any available contemporary information or drawings that still survive to these days? Thanks!
