Early Aircraft Photos
 
On ebay are some nice quality photos of the Coanda 1911 Monoplane at:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/13481519855...QAAOSwIp9lWST~

I thought they might be of interest and appear to fit best on this board.

Hello,


On ebay is a very nice photo of an early Curtiss captioned as taken at an air race in 1910. The quality of the photograph looks surprisingly good for 1910 :

There are more photos from the same occasion,which don't show the aircraft so well:

Hello,


Has anyone any further information on this aircraft?


https://www.ebay.com/itm/23527386376...EAAOxy~dNQ~jyr


The aircraft is described by the seller as the world's first aircraft with a variable incidence wing. The designers name transcribing from cyrillic appears to be Georgi Bozhinov ,although it is transcribed as Boginoff on wiki.

Re: Early Aircraft Photos
 
Clint and I discussed this one while TOCH went down - back on - down again etc.
I suggested it was the Flanders F.4 which is known to have been at Brooklands and at this point
I believe we agree it is.....

Anyone else?

Cheers
Stig
