1. Title: "The Dayton-Wright Limousine: A 1921 Aviation Marvel from The Peter Butt Aviation Collection" This photograph showcases the Dayton-Wright Limousine, an extraordinary modification of a Dayton-Wright-built Airco DH-4 aircraft from 1921. Known alternatively as the KT Cabin Cruiser, this aircraft represents a unique blend of luxury and innovation in the early days of aviation. The Dayton-Wright Limousine was the brainchild of Dayton-Wright Airplane Company, an American aviation manufacturer based in Ohio. The original Airco DH-4 was a two-seat biplane, widely used as a military trainer and light transport aircraft during World War I. However, the Dayton-Wright team saw an opportunity to transform it into a luxurious flying limousine, catering to the growing demand for private air travel. Heavily modified, the Dayton-Wright Limousine boasted a spacious cabin that could comfortably accommodate up to six passengers, in addition to the pilot. The cabin was fitted with plush upholstery, large windows, and even a foldable table. The exterior was adorned with elegant wood paneling and streamlined features, making it a stylish statement in the skies. This photograph, from The Peter Butt Aviation Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the Dayton-Wright Limousine in all its glory. The image reveals the aircraft's impressive size, with its extended cabin and distinctive design elements. The passengers, dressed in fashionable attire, exude an air of elegance and excitement, showcasing the allure of early aviation and the promise of a new era in transportation. The Dayton-Wright Limousine represents a fascinating chapter in the history of aviation, showcasing the ingenuity and vision of its creators. This photograph serves as a reminder of the thrill and luxury that early aviation offered, and the boundless potential of human innovation.
