The Curtiss Eagle (retrospectively designated the Model 19 by Curtiss some years later) was an airliner produced in small numbers in the United States shortly after World War I. The aircraft was a conventional biplane with three-bay unstaggered wings of equal span. The fuselage was a very advanced design for its day incorporating careful streamlining of its monocoque structure and offering the crew as well as the passengers a fully enclosed cabin.
