My problem with the Doutre(s) is that the drawing in Jane's 1913 does not match with the picture of Doutre in Breguet's. Either the drawing is not very accurate: the hull between the pilot and the engine, and the tail-fin(s) are not the same, or there is some sort of mix-up in what is Farman and what is what.

But that does not matter much now, I think.

Afternoon all
could be made of chocolate or beer
Well as a lover of both I couldn't resist that - I've found one common name that makes both beer and chocolates - but sadly not an aircraft, unless the spelling is different?
