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

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?

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.
