Borel or Morane Replica

    Not sure what the individual has tried to copy, but it certainly is not a Blériot XI... :-) Stig

Frey (LOC)

  • cotinis said:
    Looks to be a French aviator, Andre Frey (1886-1912). Some sources (erroneously ?) call him Alfred Frey. See: Early Aviators a postcard with his photo--calls him "Alfred Frey". Another reference on "Alfred Frey" is here. I suppose these could be two different people, confounded in some sources, but seems a simple error is more likely.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    cotinis: We agree that this is probably Andre Frey. We'll add his name to the source catalog, with the caution of "probably" until more information turns up to verify it. Thanks!
  • Past to Present Photos said:
    I can confirm it's Andre Frey (french license 93) but would like to add that Alfred Frey also existed and had the french license 48. Andre had a moustache, Alfred didn't. Source: Les 100 Premiers Aviateurs brevetes au monde et la naissance de l'Aviation (E.J. Lassalle, ca 1960).

    June 10, 1910 - November 21, 1912: Between these dates, so close, the entire career of Andrew Frey. The approval of his wings, with No. 93, to his tragic end, near Reims, on the military airfield where he was conducting a training period as a reservist. Licensed pilot in 1910, Andrew Frey participates in the 2nd week of flying Farman Champagne in the team and finished third in the race Paris - Rome 1911. He defends the French colors during the Gordon Bennett Cup in Chicago before being involved in an accident during a military career in 1912 at Mourmelon-en-Champagne. Andrew Frey reappeared in May 1912 with a Hanriot this time. May 2, he rallied Issy-les-Moulineaux in Reims average, respectable for the time, of 115 km / h. In June, he participated in the Tour d'Anjou, Grand Prix of the Aero Club of France, still in his Hanriot. Then on July 11, always in Reims, he broke the record with passenger 135 kilometers an hour. It is better, two days later, alone on board, winning the Cup playoff Gordon Bennett by completing the 200 kilometer course in 1h24min25s (142.800 km / h on average). With his Blériot monoplane, he became known in the race Paris - Madrid, scheduled from May 21 to 26, won by Jules Védrines on a Morane-Saulnier monoplane powered by 50 hp Gnome, at Roland Garros, Louis and André Gibert Frey. Conneau, who calls himself in racing "Andrew Beaumont", became famous May 28, 1911, by winning the race Paris - Rome, organized by the Petit Journal, before Roland Garros on the same device. Beaumont traveled the 1,475 miles from the race in 21 hours 10 minutes flight. He beat ten competitors, including Roland Garros, and Andrew Frey Vidart - embarked on a Deperdussin, particularly fast monoplane.

    John Evans Evans-Freke, perhaps. From that link to thepeerage.com:
    He gained the rank of Temporary Flying Sub-Lieutenant in the Royal Naval Air Service.

    And that looks like a Moraine-Saulnier H type Monoplane

    A shot at Alamy stock photos carries the text:

    The Aerial Derby: Lord Carbery with his Morane-Saulnier monoplane, 1914 (1934). John Evans-Freke, 10th Baron Carbery (1892-1970) at the Aerial Derby, an air race sponsored by the Daily Mail in which the competitors flew a circuit around London. It was first held in 1912, with subsequent races in 1913 and 1914. It resumed in 1919 after the First World War, but the last edition was held in 1923.

    Here he is in the 1901 census aged 8, recorded as simply John Carbery, at home in Castle Freke.
