Mike and Carlo racing for the finish but it's Mike by a nose.
Thank you, Kevin.
There's no disguising the location of the next mystery - and I wouldn't think that it's identity will tax your brains for too long!
Oh, and it's the big beastie in the foreground that requires an identity - although there's an extra glass if you can identify also those in the middle ground and background as well (that's working towards the top right hand corner of the image).
I would suggest the following planes:
Latecoère 6, Caudron C.61 and Potez XVIII
Well done, sir. Spot on. That deserves not just an extra glass but a Stein - for which I've failed to find an icon!
Thanks, Mike, you are too generous.
Here is a biplane of about the same vintage. An extra point if you can tell me what is so special about this particular aircraft.
All-
A quick heads up, SOH will be offine later to update the servers.
See this thread for outage times:

Gosh!
I breathe a sigh of relief that the board is working again, thought it had been hacked.
Didn't notice that the server was about to move.
And of course it is the Martinsyde "The Big Fella", the first machine of the Irish Air Corps.
That's the 1938 Canadian Froebe Helicopter from Homewood, Manitoba - not a machine recommended for tall pilots!
European, the first aircraft to be designed in its country of origin.
Think I got it. The Dobkevicius Dobi I from Lithuania.

Indeed you have, Kevin. Yes, it's the Dobi-1. Over to you.
I went off in the other direction thinking that it was pre Dassault........(Bloch)

That looks Italian.
Maybe the first Fiat C.29?
Let's go on with this little low-winger.
A one-off from a well known manufacturer.
Eventually dug it out, Robert. It's the Bellanca T-14-14.
