Breguet's Aircraft ID Challenge Records: 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.
All aircraft are of the 14-18 period (ie either designed, built or left the ground during this period but must have flown/left the ground at some stage ie before during or after the period).
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.
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 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.
The final arbitor in relation to questions about the rules will be Breguet

This is the Breguet 11 Corsaire, a 3 engined, 4 seat, French heavy fighter/bomber of 1916, with distinctive fuselage structures, undercarriage and vertical tail. This site is a good clue too Breguet XI Corsaire

This Breguet's ID challenge is a Breguet !

The general Breguet-Michelin look ,two nacelles,three engines help for the ID.

It's the Breguet BM XI "Corsaire"

Btw,an evolution of the BM-V with 27,7m span and 3x220 hp Renault

Cheers
Richard
