Журнал - Flight за 1911 г.
The above photograph illustrates the original monoplane tried by M. Bleriot at Bagatelle and Issy during 1907. In it the use of struts and wire ties was reduced to a minimum, and one of the characteristic features was the upturned wingtips. M. Bleriot has just built a new machine on somewhat similar lines which is to be tried shortly.

The same machine as reconstructed in April 1905. The narrow tread and short wheel-base must have made it hard to taxi - at least 2 men needed here!
