EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the forward fuselage of Engineering Division XNBL-1 AS64215, also known as The Barling Bomber, Witteman-Lewis XNBL-1, and McCook Field Project P-303, being crated for transportation to McCook Field at Witteman-Lewis Co. Designed by Walter Barling, the XNBL-1 was a groundbreaking aircraft, classified as a large triplane, with six 420hp Liberty L-12 engines, quad landing gear, and four tails. The NBL in its name stands for Night Bombardment-Long distance. The XNBL-1 was contracted to Witteman-Lewis Co. for manufacture at Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey. After being shipped to Wright Field in unsassembled sections via train, the aircraft made its first flight on August 22, 1923. Unfortunately, it was only flown a few times before being dismantled and scrapped in 1928. This photograph, taken circa 1923, offers a glimpse into the history of early aviation engineering and the ambitious attempts to push the boundaries of aircraft design and capabilities.
