Форум Breguet's Aircraft Challenge
A thirteen meter span monoplane - with which two passengers could be carried beneath the pilot - built by Oswald Kahnt in Leipzig-Lindenthal. Kahnt was taught to fly by Hans Grade and opened the "1. Sächsische Fliegerschule" in Leipzig. Apart from some Grade machines, he built this monoplane during 1911. The power-plant used was initially a 45 hp Oerlikon; later a 70 hp Schröter inline engine was installed. With his "Falke" (Falcon), Kahnt flew over the "Völkerschlachtdenkmal." As head pilot at the Gothaer Waggonfabrik during the war, he was killed in a crash.
