Dayton-Wright Aerial Coupe

The Dayton-Wright OW.1 Aerial Coupe was an American four-seat touring aircraft built by the Dayton-Wright Company of Dayton Ohio. It was reputed to be the last aircraft designed by Orville Wright (hence the designation OW.1) but it relied heavily on the De Havilland DH.4 experience. Following on from a wartime contract to build the British DH.4 under license the Dayton-Wright Company looked at development of the aircraft for civil use.
