This is for LaserLloyd.

It's CRUNCH TIME!

Here's another easy one complete with S/Nr. for our Fledgling Fliegers:



Don't let the 3.0 hours escape you!

Need Mfg., Type , and what you see to identify this one!
Any additional information on Who, What, Where, and or When is greatly appreciated.

I'll give you a hint, It's wearing British colors!

GO BLUE TEAM!

Previous 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!
Offenders will be dealt with severely!
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


GOOD HUNTING, FOKKERJ

P.S. Now we need to work on SCMc.
I'm a little concerned that he isn't quite ready for solo yet!

Wow, that was a hard one!
But the blue team failed Welcome to the board Graham.

Bruno, you mistyped the German name, it should read Hans von Hünerbein (to a German it sounds like chicken leg - Hühnerbein).

You know I had my Tri-focals on and I that it was a Tri-plane.

Wow, I even knew this one but that's not saying much

First kill for Graham Hunter

I'll have to tell my Grampa "Hühnerbein" Stewart about that!

It does slightly resemble a Nieuport Triplane!

I hope all of you ACES weren't biting at the bit to have a "Free For All" on this one. We need to let the New Guys get their feet wet before the serious action comes at them!
