• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

This the Societa Italiana Aviazione (S.I.A.) IS 5 bomber of 1916?

I posted a very similar S.I.A. bomber previously that John spotted. Maybe the same one? Can't seem to find it using the search function though.
 
It is the S.I.A. bomber, that had a couple of different designations. The one I have seen most often is S.I.A. 14b. Regrets about the photo size, but there don't seem to be too many shots of this one.

Weird cockpit configuration - wonder why they needed a crew of three anyway ??

The Great Lakes XTBG-1.
 
No, it appears in Aviafrance, but with no pic and a totally misleading description- as a biplane. One of their few blips.

It is the Lioré et Olivier Leo-8.

OH please, fellows.
