Poynter Monoplane
During May 1910, Howard Wright built a single-seat tractor monoplane designed by E.J. Poynter, a well-known artist who lived near Brooklands. The monoplane was of sound design and bore the hall-marks of Wright's first class workmanship. It followed conventional construction of the period but was readily distinguishable by its large Demoiselle-style tail and tapered wings. Power was provided by a 60 hp Green engine driving a two-blade propeller. Construction was undertaken at Battersea and tests were made at Brooklands in June but the aircraft was never flown, because Poynter was injured in a car accident.
Span 45 ft; length 28 ft; wing root chord 9 ft; wingtip chord 6 ft; wing area 320 sq ft; elevator area 60 sq ft; rudder area 30 sq ft.

Wiki Avro Canada C102 Jetliner:
"On its second flight, on 16 August, the landing gear failed to extend, and the Jetliner had to make a belly-landing. However, the damage was minor, and the aircraft was in the air again in three weeks".
Haha, en dat was maar een gok op basis van de geplaatste foto

Borel Ruby (Torpille) 1913
Borel-Ruby: Before the development of machine-gun synchronizers, designers had experimented with several generally unsatisfactory solutions; one was the pusher biplane with forward-mounted gun; another, less common and less satisfactory, was the so-called "torpedo" aeroplane with the propeller mounted behind the tail, like the Tatin monoplane. In 1913 Borel built such a monoplane, sometimes known as Ruby-Borel, sometimes simply as Ruby.
It had Borel warping wings, but the rectangular-sectioned fuselage was partly of metal, with a pointed nose and the aft fuselage sharply tapering to the propeller hub. The pilot sat ahead of the wing, with the 70 hp Gnome inside the fuselage at his back, driving the pusher propeller mounted at the very tip of the rear fuselage through a shaft more than 5 m long, which may have caused problems. The gunner/observer sat in front with the machine-gun mounted on the cowl in front of him - sometimes replaced with a high windshield. Ports for cooling were let into the side of the fuselage aft of the motor. Vertical fins were set above and below the rear fuselage; the elevators trailed back in an arc behind the propeller, and together with the trailing wingtips, gave the machine a faintly bat-like appearance.
The Torpedo met with no success with the Army, nor did other efforts by Borel and Bleriot to build monoplanes with forward-firing guns.
(Span: 9 m; length: 7 m; 70 hp Gnome)
