1912 - 0187.PDF
MARCH 2, 1912. [/7JGHT In their new military monoplane, "La Triplette," the Antoinette firm have made use of an altogether new form of landing chassis. The motor, an 8-cyl. Antoinette of 60-h.p., is covered by a shield, as on the Marti n-Handasydc monoplane, to reduce head resistance. The landing chassis of the Hanriot-Pagny monoplane is modelled on pronounced Nieuport lines. The skids project backwards, Bristol fashion, so that, on depressing the tail, they rub along the ground, and so bring the machine to a standstill after a minimum of run. I87
