OK.... This time, name the plane and the ship - and if you find it on the web, be aware that they are not always right!

Tricky Ricky

I`ll hazard a guess, ship looks French so maybe a Farman ?

'Fraid not - both British.

Looks like a Wright flyer... no British, a Bristol Boxkite? :-\

RickF · « **Reply #558 on:** August 24, 2008, 10:38:38 am »

Not a Bristol - that would be far too long ..... which might be a clue?

Sorry, didn't realize you wanted the ship as well.

Yes HMS Hibernia

RickF · « **Reply #563 on:** August 24, 2008, 04:19:02 pm »

You've got it. It's the Shorts seaplane, engaged in the trials of 1912 on HMS Hibernia. HMS London was also involved.
