Hi Clint

In Italy all these MF.11 were known as MF.14, which must be their way of confusing it with the French Military Type XIV. However that mistake was made already back in the "good-old-days"....

It was mostly licence built and to give the seller some credit when he says B-5, the FIAT owned Societa Italiana Aviazione (SIA) called them SIA 5b, so we can easily see where the seller went astray....

Cheers

Hi Stig,


Thanks for the comprehensive info on the varying designations. When it comes to fitting these into a excel sheet I'll probably go with MF.14 as that's the military designation.

Hello
This plane is related to the ace Edmond Pillon, chief pilot by Farman after the war. A lot of informations upon Pillon here (in French), with other photos :

Stig,


Thanks for the initial id, I was looking in totally the wrong area. Perhaps if I'd only read the back more carefully Just after I'd said in the Bristol thread that I wouldn't be linking to any of that sellers post war and civilian aircraft. Nought for two as our American cousins say.


Jean,


Thanks very much for the interesting link. Again, if only I 'd paid sufficient attention to Pillon's name . This is the second photo I've posted after the one in the Short aircraft thread, that I could have found on albindenis had I only known it.
