You had me thinking twice about the answer when you said wait.

Bourgois-Sénemaud AT40 of 1929

Good shooting fauteuil volant - the Bourgois-Sénemaud AT40 it is.

Your stage.

Thank you, dook. Here's a bit of an oddity.

There are lots of aircraft there - which one ?

As you say dook, too much information. However the aircraft in question I guess is the one with the elongated fin, which has been used on another aviation quiz website. No not AQ.

The one with the elevator on top of the fin - and I can't remember its name!

I apologise for, unintentionally, providing an album of images rather than the individual image intended. I've now edited my post by uploading that image directly to this site rather than using a photo hosting site. I have to assume that the manner in which I've posted individual images on other sites, using a photo hosting site, doesn't work on this site (or, if it does, I haven't worked out how it's done). Anyhow, if what I've posted doesn't permit an identification, let me know and I'll post more of it.

It's hard to tell you how it works without telling you what it is - and I'm not brave enough to flout the 24 hour rule!

Sorry - that was aimed at sablatnic not you.

Would you please check my edit above ^^^^

The answer to your question, dook, is yes.

Merci Monsieur.

In over 20 years of teaching aerodynamics I have never seen anything like that.

Was it a glider ?

To me it looks like a split/clamshell airbrake but I can find nothing on the web.

No, dook, it was powered a 38 hp flat twin.

Possibly an ultralight ?

I suspect that it would be if it was flying today - although I haven't found a reference to its auw - but the concept was barely recognised during its short existence, which terminated during the last war.

dook is entering the hold. :uhoh:

Leaving the hold.

BOUFFORT-LANTRES Monoplane

Ah, but there was more than one of them! Thus a little more precision, please, as to the type designation of that in the image posted.
