    Right. Originally a flying boat fighter used by A-H and German navies, one was modified into triplane configuration.

    A hint then. It's an American aircraft.

    Hmm, odd everyone's always guessing the most outlandish things here, but now the silence is deafening? Not sure what hints to give except that to me it seems this one comes from the same data source as so many other contemporary aircraft we've seen here.

    Shame on you. Rep is inconsequential. It's the winning that matters.

    In all fairness, I've decided to wait some time, I've been posting things here far too often. But if this keeps going on, I might grab it.

    You may have to.
    I've been trying to find images of American biplanes and it's not like they were building a plethora of them at the time.

    Okay then. You have 24 hours. Then I'm popping it. Yes, I know what it is.

    Lol tbh, that comment would have gotten you a rep point ....... if I had any to give you. I say, address the admins. They're the ones responsible for this unworkable policy!

    Flinn has said repeatedly that you can VM or PM him to deal with issues of outstanding rep. Additionally, as you can see from the other games people have no problems giving rep on others behalf so long as you make it clear you're unable to do it. This is a problem with multiple solutions already provided .

    After some more research, only one "American" biplane came up looking like the one in the image.
    I am inclined to propose the Curtiss JN-4 Jenny as an answer.

    Okay...I said 24 hours, so here it is.

    Wittemann-Lewis Training Tractor. One built, and seems like there are only three reliable photos of it. That's why people hate biplanes...many of them look pretty much the same, and photo evidence is scarce. If it wasn't for unequal wing span, it would look just like Rumpler C.I.

    Is correct. And thx for the head's up I lost track.

    As for hard to find. There's really not much alternative to trawling through archived pictures or hardcopy sources.

    That's odd. Discord hosting always worked for me...
