De Monge/Buscaylet Experimental Aircraft

<...>
  In 1918 de Monge designed an unusual airplane lor the Buscaylet firm. It was a single-bay biplane with a "living" wing. Presumably this meant that the forward-swept upper wing was fully articulated. The engine was mounted inside the Deperdussin-designed fuselage and drove a propeller behind the wings. It is not known if the aircraft ever flew.
  De Monge founded Etablissements Louis de Monge in the early 1920s. His later designs included a single seat racer (built in 1921), an experimental type with two 35-hp Anzani 3A2 engines (1923), an experimental plane with a 300-hp Hispano Suiza engine (1924), the Type 101 A2/C2 military plane derived from the Koolhoven F.K.31 with a 420-hp Gnome Rhone Jupiter engine (1924), a twin-engine racer of flying wing configuration with either Bugatti or Vaslin V6B engines (1925), and a reconnaissance plane with a Fiat engine (1926). In mid-1924 de Monge dissolved his firm and joined Buscaylet et Cie.
