The Travel Air Model 11, also known as the Travel Air Model 11000 or the Curtiss-Wright Travel Air CW-11, was an American racing biplane developed from the general-purpose Travel Air 2000, and its derivative the Model 4-D. Two examples competed in different events during the 1929 National Air Races, including the inaugural Women's Air Derby. Pioneering woman aviator Marvel Crosson was killed flying a Model 11 in the latter event.
