    Possibly an Anzani 10 powered Caudron G.3.

Pilot and two-engine Caudron G.4

    I know it was because of the open cockpits but man I do love the style they had back then.
  • Provincial Archives of Alberta said:
    I like that classic aviator look, too.
  • TVL1970 said:
    This is a Caudron G.4. This particular example is powered by two Anzani 10 radial engines (distinguished by their dual exhaust collector rings). See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caudron_G.4
  • Provincial Archives of Alberta said:
    Thank you!

    This is one of the 12 Caudron G.4 (also given as G.IV roman numeral) biplanes (partly) produced by the British Caudron Company at Cricklewood. These were fitted with the Anzani radials and delivered to the RNAS. The RNAS order for the machines was dated 1 October 1915, while machines had serials 3289 - 3300. Most of them were deleted in 1916, not an unusual service time for aeroplanes at that time. This picture shows that it was used in some publication. In some way only the lighter part was shown in that publication, sort of Photoshopping avant la lettre.

    This appears to the be the Burgess Model I flying boat (not to be confused with the Burgess Model I Scout) built for Robert J. Collier. Famed aviator Frank Coffyn tested the aircraft for Collier at Marblehead, Massachusetts (dating the photo to July/August 1913). The engine is a 220 horsepower Anzani 20 radial engine, an immensely powerful engine for the era featuring two 10-cylinder rows. In fact, this particular engine (visible just behind Coffyn) may be the very first of its type built and sold by Italian motor manufacturer Anzani. www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1913/1913%20-%200722...
