For your entertainment puposes only, I submit the following:
Breguet's Crash Files
THE RULES
1. All aircraft are of the 14-18 period (Must have 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. To be eligible for correct ID an answer must include at least one characteristic of the aircraft that helped in its identification.
4. 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!
5. If an ace gives the correct answer too early, the challenge is over, he gets no point but has to post the next challenge. In lieu of the fact that the "novices" have in effect been "cheated" of their "exclusive" time that next post should be a relatively easy one. Anyone repeating the correct answer at the right time gets neither a point nor the right to post the next challenge.
6. The final arbitrator of all things to do with the "rules" is Breguet.
Time for a hint, Here's the real deal:
HAPPY TRAILS, FOKKERJ

Hello Flamingo,
NO, NO, NO....It's not a B.E.2,8, or 12, a,b,c,d,e,f, or z!
Oh never mind! You said an R.E.8....You are correct!

I went back and checked BCFC #1, #'s 2,3,4,5,6, & 7....no match!
I originally checked the BCFC Foto Files and could not find a match, so felt reasonably safe with this one.
Would you please tell me what and where "the file is titled RE8BCFC001-2.jpg" is.

Hello Sopwith,
Thanks for the compliment.  I was chuffed that you can see the embossed credit image in the lower right corners.
Welcome to the Aerodrome.
Don't forget to come back and hone your crashed aircraft I.D. skills.
Remember to avoid the mob and post during the first three hours.
HAPPY TRAILS, FOKKERJ

Hi FOKKERJ
Would you please tell me what and where "the file is titled RE8BCFC001-2.jpg" is.
If the cursor is on the pic you see the link's name at the lower left of the task bar and if you want to save it you get the file's name in the dialog window.
