:D G'day All!
I found these pics of a Blackburn Monoplane type D at a recent airshow in the UK.
I had not seen this aircraft before.

Oh Barry, brilliant photos of a truly graceful period of early aviation, right up there with the Demoiselle and the Antoinette, graceful and elegant! Thank you!I
That one is from the Shuttleworth Collection
A rare bird - at least to me .
Nice pics, Baz.

Very graceful for a pre-war kite! Nice pics Barry.:sAprvd::thumbsup::salute:
Beautiful pictures Barry. Following that link I can see that it was built for a Cyril Foggin. He died in a motor vehicle accident in France on the 30th of July 1918.
Super photos!
A proper spiders' web!!!
Men & their flying chests...:clap:
Another beautiful bird that I will never get to fly Baz.
Kyte.
Great pictures of such an old aircraft, Barry! :thumbsup:
