THE RULES:

1. The thread title must be "Bréguet's Pre-1914 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 flying object must have been dreamt up before 1914 (no limit backwards in time ....)
4. 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
5. Machines which exist only as 'paper', that is absolutely no material has been cut to construct it, are excluded from this ID Challenge
6. The picture / drawing must show as much of the flying object as possible, but views showing the machine 'incomplete' are possible (with discretion)
7. Challenges which depict a machine already earlier presented are disqualified
8. 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.
9. 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.
10. To be eligible for correct ID an answer must include at least one characteristic of the aircraft that helped in its identification.
11. 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.
12. 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.
13. The final arbitrator in relation to questions about the rules will be

We may need a little help on this one, Richard. I am guessing French.

[Rod_Filan]

I'm guessing 1911.

Bonjour/bonsoir à tous

It's a rarity ,at least for me

It's not french

It was built in 1911

Cheers

Sure a great rarity, but a very distinctive (parasol) wing. The proud financier (maybe the designer) is standing in his best clotches, surely to see the machine into the air for the first time

Haven't found a match so far.

Herman Reichelt's Monoplane Nr. 5 was a Grade inspired design, built in 1911 on the airfield Leipzig-Lindenthal. It flew quite nicely after a few earlier attemtps that were not that successful. I don't know about the engine used. His others were powered by Argus or Gruhl engines, I think.
Haven't seen a picture but it might have been a closer copy of the Grade types?

Then I'm missing my files, that are currently unavailable and I don't have that Flugsport issue, where I believe you have the picture from.

Bonjour/bonsoir à tous

Sorry Aquilius it's not a Reichelt
My source is not Flugsport ;

Good luck

It seems some of you need a little help
But not too much ...
Even the Sherlock Holmes method wich was so helpful for Varese several times don't work
It's neither ( future in 1911)a neutral nations nor Allies bird ,but a (future) Central Powers one

Cheers

[Varese2002]

I have the slight idea that the machine originates from Rumania

Cheers

[richard B]

Sorry ,it's not rumanian.
