Purpose built for a long distance flight.
Thanks Mike. Yes, the heat is headed this way like a light in a narrow train tunnel.
Here is a scrubby bipe.

And this is the Piaggio P.111 from Thompson's Italian aircraft book that Lefty kindly mailed to me years ago and is still a favorite in my library.
Good show Robert. :icon29: It is the Colomba or Dove. :italy:
Only other photo I found of it on another forum.
Flown circa 1912. The designers last project was a large multi-winged flying boat in 1917 that I don't think was completed.
From Southern Europe.
This was the designers second airplane build. He was active in ballooning in the early 1900's.
A forward thinking bird.

Terrible news. Wish Simon a speedy recovery!

That is a pleasing ship Mike. Probably have it in a Juptner somewhere. Extra busy with work this week so not much time for mysteries.
I can't deny your assessment. :icon29:

Thanks Robert.
On with a fancy fellow that predates the Fokker.

Two Salmson radials.
From a designer I am very fond of...
This elusive twin was designed as a gunship!

Ferber No 9 or Antoinette III depending on the source.
Never have archived to the cloud. Who has access to your information?
Spotted this nifty old tractor sitting behind the airport. Wonder if it has an owner?

Did you notice the toilet paper roll in the 247 lavatory? Now THAT is attention to detail.
Boom!
