Previous: Aeroplanes 1914 - 1918* -* Breguet's Aircraft Challenge* --


The rules:
1. The thread title must be "Breguet's Aircraft 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 completed aircraft must have been either; designed, built or have left the ground during the '14-'18 period and be identifiable by the poster.
4. The photo must show the whole aircraft - from whatever angle, or at least 2 views of a 3 view drawing (photo by preference).
5. Challenges which depict a machine already earlier presented are disqualified (always check the list at Aeroplanes 1914 - 1918* -* Breguet's -Aircraft Challenge* -- when in doubt !) and the poster re-post within the same thread, the 12hours handicap beginning from that point.
6. 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.
7. 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.
8. To be eligible for correct ID an answer must include at least one characteristic of the aircraft that helped in its identification.
9. 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.
10. 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.
11. The final arbiter in relation to questions about the rules is BREGUET.

I believe that this small equal span, single bay biplane is the Curtiss S in its original form. The S, later designated S 1 as a series of machines followed, and also known as the Scout, Speed Scout and Baby Scout, was the smallest machine Curtis could construct around the OX 5 motor.

Given the very small single bay size of the machine and the round view of the engine department I would identify this machine as the Curtiss S-1 Speed Scout, sometimes called the 'Baby Scout'. Curtiss made the smallest machine that could be designed around the Curtiss OX 90 hp engine.

Looks like you both used the same source, but Dave was quicker this time, and gets the point and next challenge.

Score board after # 979: Curtiss S-1 Speed Scout, aka Baby Scout
