Previous Breguet's Crash Files

The Rules
All aircraft are of the 14-18 period (Must have left the ground during this period).
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.
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!
To be eligible for correct ID an answer must include at least one characteristic of the aircraft that helped in its identification.
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!
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.
The final arbitrator of all things to do with the "rules" is Breguet

Hi Richard

the center section struts and the gun ring seem to belong to an LVG C.V.

Bloody good guess! The (rather steep) angle of the tail fin also matches!

Hello Richard B,

No worries, you can ramble around beautiful and sunny Bretagne all that you want.... We will wait.

Nobody mentioned the wing mounted box style radiator or the engine.
Just the center section struts and the gun ring by Flamingo and Marc mentioned a piece of tail!

Congratulations to Joachim for a job well done.
