Evening Graeme,

It did sort of fly mate

The first Russian aircraft with bicycle landing gear.

Monoplane with uncovered fuselage. Rudder had aerodynamically compensation. Aircraft was tested in 1910 at St.Petersburg by Georgy Konstantinovich Demkin himself (student lawyer). 25hp Anzani engine. Short 'hops' only.
