Breguet's Rules


•The thread title must be "Bréguet's aircraft ID challenge #......"
•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.
•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.
•The photo must show the whole aircraft - from whatever angle, or at least 2 views of a 3 view drawing (photo by preference).
•Challenges which depict a machine already earlier presented are disqualified
(always check the list at earlyaviator.com/br.challenge when in doubt !)
•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.
•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.
•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 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.
• The final arbiter in relation to questions about the rules will be Breguet.

This machine was already presented in Challenge #033 . I think there is a case with Breguet to evaluate the rule about doubles :blush:

Cheers

Disqualified?

Looking at the Breguet rules this one is disqualified, but you are still entitled to submit a new one :) In the meantime I have P.M 'ed Breguet to evaluate this rule in the circumstances of today where 543 Challenges have passed.

Cheers

I think that we should continue the rule.

I think so too - for a variety of reasons. What I think we need to do is make the list easier to check. This could be achieved relatively easily though it is a lot of work. The challenges need to be listed aircraft first, number second. An alphabetical list would be far easier for the less computer literate to check. Someone however would need to do the donkey work and I think it unfair to ask Rod who has already been generous enough with his time in keeping our lists up dated.

In the meantime Lodzermensch please post another for our delectation.

On another point, please pm me with ideas on how to celebrate the upcoming milestone of one of our confraternity.

To have a "previous" list in alphabetical order is very important!

I already started with the first 100.

We should split this work so that five guys are doing 100 challenges each and then these five lists have to be joined. Volunteers step forward!

No problem, I hope. Just give me some time. If I understand correctly, the next Challenge will be the next number.

Cheers

Hi Flamingo!
It can be done within a second by any spreadsheet application e.g. Excel.
I can do it, but what to do with the file?
Regards,
Yavor
