Bleriot Monoplane
In 1915 Bleriot proposed a military monoplane with a large, shoulder mounted wing. However, Bleriot proposed having an additional set of wings of shorter span and much reduced chord; one wing would be mounted above the fuselage, the other suspended beneath the fuselage. This gave the appearance of a triplane, but Bleriot termed the new design as a monoplane with auxiliary surfaces. The fuselage terminated in a conventional rudder with no fixed fin. As with the preceding Type 53, there were biplane stabilizers. However the ends of the stabilizers were covered by large fins. Bleriot's proposed design was given brevet 79988 in November 1915, but apparently it was never built.
Bleriot 65
The Bleriot 65 was a proposal for a two-seat biplane fighter. The aircraft was to have been a biplane powered by a 200-hp Anzani engine. Armament was to have consisted of two machine guns; one mounted fore the other aft. Historian Jean Devaux has suggested that this plane would have been in the same category as the SPAD SA.3 two-seat fighter and the Ponnier P.1. It is not known if the aircraft was ever built.
