Are these pieces all supposed to be the same size or nearly the same size?

All the same size. (I took a photo and cut it up into mathematically identical pieces) then scanned each at the same resolution and size.

Bonjour à tous

I am maybe completly out of subject, but I believe to distinguish a Curtiss-like seaplane at the edge of a lake ......

It's like a special cake to which I now add a piece of plane and two horses and a bit of scenery!

The new piece added by Breguet (#500-4) shows at least the contours of the biplane. Picture is taken from behind, showing the biplane with a gondola ('bathtub') type mounted on the wing. Further a completely open tail construction.

An engine with a big square radiator can be 'clearly' seen between the wing, so a conclusion can be that we are looking at a two-engined machine. I cannot discern if it is a twin-engined pusher or tractor.

So my idea is that it is an early (1913-1914) two-engined biplane with a central gondola.

The horses are not very special, well they are horses

Cheers

Kees

Hello Breguet,

Sometimes I think that quite possibly you may just have more fun
than normal people!

The two horses look familiar, but I haven't quite identified the shrubbery yet.

Keep'em coming, FOKKERJ

Don't worry FokkerJ there's a lovely bit of tree in parts #6 and #8.

Bonjour

My only contribution is to say that Piece#3 can be joined with the piece with
the horses...
