The rules:

•The thread title must be "Bréguet's pre-1914 ID challenge #......"
•The score board, link and rules must be copied to the beginning and end of each thread so that we know where we are.
•The flying object must have been dreamt up before 1914 (no limit backwards in time ....)
•There are no limits to the flying object for the pre-1914 series. There is no ruling that it must be flown, or completely built
•Machines which exist only as 'paper', that is absolutely no material has been cut to construct it, are excluded from this ID Challenge
•The picture / drawing must show as much of the flying object as possible, but views showing the machine 'incomplete' are possible (with discretion)
•Challenges which depict a machine already earlier presented are disqualified
•If there is any doubt as to the eligibility of a flying object for the challenge details should be PM'd to Breguet BEFORE the object is submitted.
•Once someone has got 5 correct answers under their belt they belong to the ROYALTY. Once they belong to the ROYALTY they must wait 12hrs after the posting of the new challenge before they can post an answer.
•To be eligible for correct ID an answer must include at least one characteristic of the aircraft that helped in its identification.
•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.
•If a ROYALTY 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.
•The final arbitor in relation to questions about the rules will be Breguet

Bonjour ŕ tous

It's the Reissner Ente .(Wellblech Ente) (second form after having been rebuilt )In the third form ,it gets four fins under the mainplane .

Clue :canard ,and the future corrugated Junkers wing and noseplane ""fabric""

I just noticed I'm 10 minutes too late...


But to add some information; Prof. Dr. Hans Reißner built this canard in the experimental workshop of Junkers that was connected to the "Technische Hochschule Aachen".

According to G. Schmitt several Versions were built and also flown.
The swiss Robert Gsell presented the machine a few weeks in Johannisthal at the end of 1912.

Well, it was not too hard question
I found this photo here: here
It says that this is INITIAL design, but I am not see any reason to not-believe to richard B
