Breguet's pre-1914 Aircraft ID challenge 193

Bonjour à tous

Here is the #193 .

I hope the beast will be easier to find this time ,but who knows ?



The rules of engagement:

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 Bre

This beauty is the 1909 Flieger designed by the Sächsiche Verein für Luftschiffahrt. The machine was powered by a 30 PS engine constructed by Fritz Hayn. Actual construction of the Flieger was done by the Maschinenfabrik von Hayn & Leilich in Chemnitz.

Clearly the machine was a combination of a Drachenflieger and a Radflieger

Identification of the machine is easy, starting with the four wheel undercarriage, multiple wings, flapping tips, normal propeller etc.

Cheers

Kees

Quote from Flugsport 1909 Issue 8 (April 2, 1909) p.225
Der Sächsiche Verein für Luftschiffahrt hat einen Flugapparat gebaut und denselben zurzeit in Dresden im Konzertsaal des städtischen Ausstellungspalates ausgestellt. Die Ausstellung ist vormittags von 9 Uhr ab bis abends 9 Uhr zu besichtigen. Diese Flugmaschine und der 30 pferdige, nur 45 kg wiegende Motor sind eigene Konstruktion von Fritz Hayn und wurden in der Maschinenfabrik von Hayn & Leilich in Chemnitz erbaut. Ein erster derartiger Apparat wurde bereits im Sommer 1908 fertiggestellt und die ersten Flugversuch damit gemacht, dann wurde die Flugmaschine mit Unterstützung des Sächsischen Vereins für Luftschiffahrt, nachdem ein größeres Modell in der Technischen Hochschule geprüft und für gut erklärt war, umgebaut, so daß die weiteren Versuche damit vor Weihnachten vorgenommen werden konnten. Diese Versuche hatten den Zwech, die Festigkeit der einzelnen Teile zu prüfen. Die Firma nahm dann auf Grund der dabei gesemmelten Erfahrungen einen abermaligen vollständigen Umbau vor. Insbesondere wurde der Antrieb- noch größere Tragflächen und ein besonderes Höhensteuer angebracht sowie ein 30 pferdiger Rotationsmotor eigener Konstruktion eingebaut. Der Apparat selbst ist eine Kombination von Rad- und Drachenflieger. Es ist also gewissermaßen ein Drachenflieger mit radartig bewegten Auftriebsflächen. Diese Auftriebsflächen haben den Zweck, den Apparat direkt von der Stelle aufsteigen zu lassen. Die Vorwärtsbewegung des Apparates erfolgt durch den Luftpropeller. Der Apparat ist 6 m lang, 6 m breit und 3 1/2 m hoch und wiegt unbemannt 255 kg. Die Ausstellung wird sicher einen großen Anklang finden, denn es ist das erstemal daß in Dresden ein deutscher Flugapparat der Öffentlichkeit zugängig gemacht wird. Von den Erbauern sind weitere systematische Versuche geplant, zu deren Durchführung die Ausstellung die Mittel ergeben soll.
Reading it closely it becomes clear that development was very methodical, starting with a first model in summer 1908, which was used for flight tests. After these tests a bigger model was built which was evaluated by the Technische Hochschule (probably Leipzig..). After these tests and evaluations the full scale machine was built. The machine is described as a VTOL avant la lettre, as the 'radial moving wings' (radartig bewegten Auftriebsflächen) were envisaged to lift the machine vertically in the air. The propeller was used to move the machine horizontally.

The designers had an original view to combine vertical and horizontal movement in one machine.

There is more on this machine in Issue 10 of Flugsport 1909.

Cheers

Kees
