The Latécoère 14 was a French airliner built in 1923 but only to the extent of a single example. It was a conventional high-wing cantilever monoplane with a wing of very thick section. An enclosed cabin was provided for four passengers while the pilot sat in an open cockpit above the wing. This arrangement was disliked by its pilots as they feared being crushed if the aircraft were to roll over on takeoff or landing.
