Breguet's aircraft challenge #357

This name of this machine may not be a household word, but it did perform an historic flight, so is not just a pretty face. These photos which I think were taken on that flight are not very good, so I will give 2 of them.

Look at precedent breguet's challenge here:Aeroplanes 1914 - 1918 - Breguet's Aircraft Challenge --

"The Rules" - The small print -

The thread title must be "Breguet's aircraft ID challenge #......

The score board, link and rules must be copied to the beginning and end of each thread so that we know where we are.

The completed aircraft must have been either; designed, built or have left the ground during the '14-'18 period and be identifiable by the poster.

The photo must show the whole aircraft - from whatever angle, or at least 2 views of a 3 view drawing (photo by preference).

Once someone has got 5 correct answers under their belt they become an ACE. Once they become an ACE they must wait 12hrs after the posting of the new challenge before they can post an answer.

The first person to ID the challenge correctly gets to post the next challenge. If this can not be done for any reason Breguet himself will post the next challenge.

The final arbitor in relation to questions about the rules will be Breguet.

Oh my! I seem to have posted another that is more difficult than I anticipated. I hope you are not all looking in the wrong part of the world. But this is on more than one web site. Maybe the problem is with the pictures of it in flight; here is one on the ground.

No exotic location for this one. I'll make it easy - it is European.

Well, to make some noise at all, I would say it is a likely an Italian monoplane somewhere around 1913 - 1915.

Cheers

Morane-Saulnier Type H?

Though the wing tips look quite too square . . .

Not Antoni, although it would have been a good one. Not Morane either. Kees time-frame is a shade early.

monoplanes on which several Italian records were broken
But no Photos...
