Lincoln Standard L.S.5

The Lincoln Standard L.S.5 was a modification of the Standard J biplane to accommodate 5 passengers marketed by the Lincoln Aircraft Company (later the Lincoln-Page Aircraft Co.).

The aircraft featured an engine upgrade to 150 hp (112 kW) from the original Curtiss OX-5 engine and a modification to the fuselage to seat four passengers in an unusually deep open cockpit layout with side-by-side configuration seating facing each other.

[4] Mexican aviator Emilio Carranza purchased and flew a L.S.5, named "Excelsior", making flights that earned him the reputation of "The Lindbergh of Mexico" in 1927.

It crashed on July 12, 1928, killing Carranza, on a return flight from New York.
