Breguet´s Aircraft ID Challenge #389

[Varese2002]

Breguet´s Aircraft ID Challenge #389

A special one where at least two or maybe three points can be won. One point for the big biplane in the middle, one point for the little machine at the side AND for the very, very knowledgeable one point for the engine positioned behind the big biplane.

This must be enough of a Challenge./ I think we are going crescendo to a new jubilee #400.

Cheers

Kees

Precedent challenges: Aeroplanes 1914 - 1918* -* Breguet's Aircraft Challenge* --


"The Rules" :

The thread title must be "Breguet's aircraft 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 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 !)
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.
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.
The final arbitor in relation to questions about the rules will be Breguet.

Looks kinda like a VE-7 from the Lewis and Vought Corperation, but the cabane struts are different. Maybe a prototype?

Sean, a good shot. You are exactly right the cabane struts are different (and the engine installation at that) but no, not a prototype Vought VE-7.

Sure it is a US design, that looks like a Thomas Morse MB-3 in the bakground.

[Rbailey]

If it fits the time frame, more like the MB2 before the 4-blade prop was fitted.
