A Bristol biplane with 100 hp engine on the ground with a pilot and passenger. This was one of the aircraft that competed in the 1912 Military Trials but due to it being under powered it was withdrawn. The trials were a competition to find an aircraft for the army. 32 machines were entered from 21 companies in a series of tests. These tests covered areas such as rate of climb, speed (both fast and slow), glide angle, landing distance, time of assembly and ability to fly in a high wind. The aircraft had to meet certain other criteria such as having dual control and room for an observer, having an endurance of at least three hours, having good visibility, being able to land in a ploughed field along with various other performance stipulations. Out of these nineteen competed and eleven aircraft completed enough of the tests to be considered for prizes with four completing all the tests.}}
