Look at precedent breguet's challenges:

Aeroplanes 1914 - 1918 - Breguet's Aircraft Challenge --

"The Rules" :

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).
Challenges which depict a machine already earlier presented are disqualified
(always check the list at earlyaviator.com/br.challenge when in doubt !)
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.

Hi Flamingo,

It looks like a Sablatnig to me. I don't have much on Seeflugzeug types.

VBR, FOKKERJ

STUPID CLOCK! I need a new one!

When I started writing this post, Dave wasn't here yet. So I took my time and typed while keeping an eye on my clock, which is not synchronized with the AERODROME's "TIME KEEPER"!

Good Job Dave!
I also agree with both Yavor and Crankcase.

Can you beat that picture...?

we have so many threads going into minute detail on welding techniques, engine mountings, castor oil, arcane discussions of engine torque and data on propeller performance at different altitudes and a multitude of other technical stuff i cannot fathom, and then you see the result in the picture posted here...
...poetry in motion...stirs the heart, tickles the emotions.

do we need any other proof of how magical 1914-18 aviation can be?

One of the top scorers again...

We should introduce a rule that everybody has to wait as many hours as he has points...

It's a Sablatnig SF5, identifying features are the shape of tailplane, the little handhold in the underfin and especially the greater upper wingspan braced by the angled V-strut.

In #383 Rod Filan raised a point about the
Aeroplanes 1914 - 1918 - Breguet's Aircraft Challenge --
not being a link after copying and pasting. It's quite simple to delete the plain text, go back to the former post, right click on the link and "copy URL".
Then left click on the "insert link" icon and right click on the white line and paste.

Check the preview whether it worked.

Hope this helps

Hi:

I will post 387 in about 12 hours. It won't be as pretty as 386, which is the nicest I've seen for a long time.
