OH if correct
I wondered if anyone would notice my subtle clue accompanying my challenge photo, but while the term Charabanc (often pronounced "sharra-bang" in colloquial British English) is a type of horse-drawn vehicle or early motor coach, usually open-topped, common in Britain during the early part of the 20th century and now very rarely, if at all heard, but was still in use back in my youth in the little village where I lived, as the old boy (Ex RFC) who ran the local shop/petrol station and taxi-service had one and used it for a makeshift bus service to the County Town and for our school outings (minus the booze)!!
However, it did the job for you! Well done
It is indeed the
Grahame-White Type X Charabanc
In 1912-13 Claude G-W used this large pusher biplane designed by J D North for joy-riding. Also known in the popular press of the time as the
Aerobus
