Strictly speaking, the designer wasn't double-barrelled https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/nerd.gif I’m not sure where pyromaniac SLB is going. Up a blind alley, perhaps? |

Interesting. It just goes to show you can’t trust the Internet. Hyphenation notwithstanding, he is Number One in my book, or Nombre Trente, depending on your point of view.

Well it deriainly was an interesting Aeroplane. Apparently the first parachute descent in Great Britain from an aeroplane was made from this aircraft on the 9th May 1914.

"pyromaniac SLB" Me neither, except that as the main airframe started out as Ash, it probably finished up as ashes! :) my apologies I had a short time window this afternoon to follow the thread. From the double barreled Remington I came to the Remington Burnelli. But apparently wrong. And now I cannot match the photos of the RB2 with the challenge. Again apologies, I will not infuriate this challenge again. |
well the first British parachute jump from an aircraft was at Hendon in 2014 I think but no idea from what

A Grahame-White Type XV?

As you a say, when you had more time you could not match the Remington Burnelli aircraft to the challenge and because of this reason your comments just caused puzzlement, but I'm sure that in no way did it infuriate anybody and for my part, I did look again at the history of my challenge to see if a local farmer or landowner did take a pot-shot at it for scaring his animals or horses and how the aircraft finished its working life and finding nothing I came up with my Ash/ashes comment complete with smiley! So definitely no apologies needed and there (was) still time left to actually now give the correct answer before the pathetic 24 Hr rule expires :ok: |

Well done It is indeed the Grahame-White Type X Charabanc :ok: 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 The accursed 24 Hrs has now passed and Asturias56 has declared an Open House |
So I was on the track of a different rifle maker! Now this one with a very strange angle of attack: https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....cdf9fcbf6.jpeg |
You certainly have an odd duck there SLB1
|
One of those US road transportable aircraft?
|
Road transportation has not been proved I believe. But a US duck indeed! |
Annoyingly I recently watched a period film of this aircraft being removed from its hangar, being erected and then flown. Can't remember what it was called though!
