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. The score board, link and rules must be copied to the beginning of each thread, so that we know where we are. The score board and the correct answer to the challenge must also be placed at end of each thread.
3. 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!
4. To be eligible for correct ID an answer must include at least one characteristic of the aircraft that helped in its identification.
5. 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!
6. 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.
7. The final arbitrator of all things to do with the "rules" is Breguet.

"Play It Again, Sam"




GOOD LUCK !!!

Stepped aileron, Gun ring, rounded tail-plane - I'll guess LVG CI

Hello,

We get into a routine; however some things are not that, what they seem to be.

This is not LVG C.I.

Greetings

The fin and rudder look like Aviatik, and the elevator would also fit, but the raised gun ring and the ailerons are puzzling. But I start with Av C.I.

As I thought - the gun ring is too high and the aileron too long!

How about a Lebed 12 then? The rear half of the fuselage seems to fit!

Hello,

This is not Lebed 12.

Here is another picture of the same airplane. This may help in identification, I hope.

Found another plane with long span ailerons with a "kink" - the Häfeli DH-3
(M III). Even the raised gun ring would fit!
