Breguet's Crash Files

Rules:
1) All aircraft are of the 14-18 period (ie either designed or left the ground during this period).
2) All "ACES" with a score of 5.0 or higher must obey the 3.0 hour handicap. All others with a score of ZERO to 4.99 may start immediately, if not sooner!
3) And whom ever wins this challenge will have to provide a new one! If this can not be done for any reason, please PM Breguet and he will take over as host!
4) The final arbitrator of all things to do with the "rules" is Breguet.
5) ALL VIOLATORS WILL BE DEALT WITH SEVERELY!

Gosh...
...Is that a triple bay biplane? or am i double-counting interplane struts. that should narrow the choice considerably.

Think exotic. This is rarer than the DeBragaes. Probably unfair, but what the heck.

The house seems more British than continental to me, for what, if anything, that may be worth. Ransom

The tail looks reminiscent of a 1914 EAC Biplane.

Maybe it is a collision between two different types - the wings don't look like they go with that fuselage.

Rarer than the DeBragaes?

We're all doomed!

We have what appears to be equal span and equal chord upper and lower wings. Three bay.

Short chord and equal sized ailerons on both wings. Dual control horns on each.

Trestle type cabane.

A fat fuselage, at least in the middle, and a tail structure I can't make out due to the contrast.

A large hole in the roof of the poor homeowner.

I'm lost.............but still looking.
