The Buhl Airsedan was a family of American civil cabin sesquiplane aircraft, the number in the designation refers to the number of seats as originally designed. A total of around sixty airframes were built, some aircraft had a special destiny: first nonstop transcontinental flight and return to the USA in five days thanks to eleven transfers; first flight of a pope (Pius XII when he was only Cardinal Monsignor Pacelli); NC2915, dubbed Miss Doran, loast at sea in 1927 during the ill-fated Doran Air Race (seen in Christopher Strong)...
Fitted with various engine (Wright J-5 or J-6 Whirlwind; Pratt & Whitney Wasp; Warner Scarab -only on the CA-3- and even flying testbed for the Packard DR-980 diesel engine), those successful family reach an end due to dissolution of the company on 21 July 1932.
