Hello Ermio
Attached is a page from Flight magazine, dated August 28 1909, one that contains a photo and brief letter about the Windham Monoplane.
I suspect the aeroplane was so named simply because Capt. Windham had put up the money for its construction, with others having been responsible for its design. The letter writer mentions some patents having been applied for: I've done some quick online searches. looking for them, but have been unable to locate any, perhaps the patent applications were not followed up on.
The book "British Aircraft Before The Great War" by Michael Goodall and Albert Tagg (ISBN 0764312073) contains an entry about this machine, detailing a bit of its history, though to be fair, relatively little is known about it.
Cheers,
Paul
