Nice one, Kevin
That is the Deperdussin Monoplane on the Concours Militaire in Reims in October 1911.

Spot on Robert!
I liked that 6-bladed prop. Kind of novel for the time.

Thanks, Kevin!
Here is an easy one, hope it is solved soon since I'm probably offline for a while after Thursday morning.

Robert, it is the Caproni Ca.48, I think.

It is the Caproni Ca.48, here in Argentininan service.
Over to you, Mike.

Thanks Robert. Here's another easy one, but a newcomer to this forum. I saw its makers once described as 'a company that rivalled the French in consistently producing ugly aeroplanes'. I think he had a point.......

Indeed. One of the better looking Blackburns.

It looks like an early Farman Hydravion but, if so, I don't know which model!
Edit: that's no Farman - it's the Bossi hydroplane of 1913 which, according to Jane's, was 'the first Italian hydroplane to fly with marked success'.

Thank you, Kevin.
Was the photograph taken on Lake Como? If so, I assume that the sailing vessel is a Comballo but I haven't before seen one with a lateen sail.
Anyhow, as this isn't the mystery sailling vessel thread, here's an natty little sporting machine for gentlemen aviators (and I apologise, in advance, for the miniscule image size).

It was Lake Como. Photo is dated March 1914.

Yes, that's it exactly, Uli. And thank you, Kevin, for the location and date of the penultimate photo. Over to Germany.

I think the Swift beat it by a year or so.
Here is one that won't win many beauty contests. (Although I like the pusher layout of course).

That beauty is the SNCAN Nord N.2100 Norazur.
