Breguet's Aircraft ID Challenge #1357
Many of these flying boats look alike to me, but other participants will probably have no problem with this.
 Score at the end of # 1356: Experimental Yokosho Nakajima Tractor Seaplane - the first original design of Chikuhei Nakajima completed in February 1915. 241.60 Dave_Kent 207.50 Rbailey 153.40 Varese2002 79.60 richard B 55.30 Aquilius 45.60 Tork1945 39.45 Lodzermensch 33.30 Cruze 30.58 Rod Filan 30.00 YavorD 24.95 Froggy 19.50 Albrecht 16.90 Flamingo 16.20 Breguet 12.50 Missouri Mule 11.50 matte_kudasai 10.45 GregE 10.40 Brad 10.30 Patrick 09.80 Alex1965 09.70 Dan-San 09.70 FOKKERJ Feuchtwanger 09.20 Rufe 08.50 Doc 08.40 JohnMacG 07.70 Berman 07.70 EdStevens 07.60 trp81 07.25 Ermeio 07.10 Colin A.

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. |

Analyzing this picture there are the following distinctive features on this flying boat
At least we are looking at a big Austro-Hungarian flying boat with a crew of three, which limits the choice of possibilities to only one design. This is the Lohner Großflugboot Type X (factory identification) which was identified by the K.u.k Navy as K.u.k. Seeflugzeug K. A crew of three was carried, pilot, observer and mechanic. Only a single example was built by the Lohner firm in 1915. It was delivered in May 1916 to the K.u.k. Navy base Pola. Its career ended when a Marineleutnant flew over to Italy on 11 June 1917. The engine fitted is a 300 hp Austro-Daimler 12-cylinder V-engine with water cooling. This single machine got registration K 300. This picture was taken inside the Lohner factory at Floridsdorf and is part of a small series of pictures where the machine was photographed from all sides. Tork1945 |
