EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the sleek and innovative design of the Morane-Saulnier Type N single-seater aircraft, a shoulder-winged plane that was a pioneering addition to the French military aviation scene during the First World War. Completed in the early months of 1914, this limited-build monoplane was an impressive feat of engineering, featuring a lightweight wooden fuselage and a powerful 80 horsepower Le Rhône rotary engine. With its distinctive propeller and streamlined shape, the Morane-Saulnier Type N was a formidable presence on the ground as well as in the sky. The plane's shoulder-winged configuration, a design that was gaining popularity during this period, allowed for improved maneuverability and stability in flight. The Type N was also equipped with a synchronizer gear, which enabled the machine guns to fire through the propeller blades without causing damage. The Morane-Saulnier Type N made its debut in military service in the spring of 1915, becoming a valuable asset to the French air forces in the ongoing conflict. Despite its impressive capabilities, the production of the Type N was limited due to the demands of the war effort and the subsequent focus on mass-producing more utilitarian aircraft. This photograph captures a moment in time when the world of aviation was on the cusp of great change, as pioneering aircraft like the Morane-Saulnier Type N paved the way for the next generation of military and civilian aircraft. A true testament to the ingenuity and determination of the early aviators, this image is a fascinating glimpse into the history of flight during the First World War.
