Previous Aeroplanes 1914 - 1918* -* Breguet's Aircraft Challenge* --

The Rules

1.The thread title must be "Bréguet's aircraft ID challenge #......"
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. The completed aircraft must have been either; designed, built or have left the ground during the '14-'18 period and be identifiable by the poster.
4. The photo must show the whole aircraft - from whatever angle, or at least 2 views of a 3 view drawing (photo by preference).
5. Challenges which depict a machine already earlier presented are disqualified
6. (always check the list at earlyaviator.com/br.challenge when in doubt !)
7. If there is any doubt as to the eligibility of an aircraft for the challenge details should be PM'd to Breguet BEFORE the aircraft is submitted.
8. Once someone has got 5 correct answers under their belt they become an ACE. Once they become an ACE they must wait 12hrs after the posting of the new challenge before they can post an answer.
9. To be eligible for correct ID an answer must include at least one characteristic of the aircraft that helped in its identification.
10. The first person to ID the challenge correctly gets to post the next challenge. If this can not be done for any reason Breguet himself will post the next challenge.
11. If an ace gives the correct answer too early, the challenge is over, he gets no point but has to post the next one. 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.
12. The final arbiter in relation to questions about the rules will be Breguet.


Here you go

Having spent half of last night with my computer I have not found anything more sophisticated.



Good Luck!!!

Bonsoir .

The SPAD-like looking,and the little spinner were my clues for :
HAER-MASKINE (H.5)
built by the Danish Navy Shipyards for the Danish Army in 1918 .

Nine were built ,here the fifth is pictured.
Service in 1918/19 ,all were scapped in 1924 .

Cheers

Richard

Danish H-Maskinen, built by Hærens Tekniske Korps / Orlogsværftet. Identifiable by neat cowling and spinner and side radiator. So far as I can tell, the translation (by machine) is H-Machine.

Hello,

Both answers are correct but Richard pushed the trigger faster.

According to Danish sources, the name of this aircraft is Hær-Maskinen aka H-Maskinen (I do not know Danish so I can not determine if maskinen is some grammatical form of maskine). As far as I know, this means “Army machine”.

Full point and next challenge go to Richard.

The word maskinen in Danish is a short form of Flyvemaskinen or The Aeroplane in English. Translated the title of the type would read The Army Aeroplane.

The same word is found in Swedish, ie Flygmaskinen.
