John Duigan’s first biplane, the photo having been taken at Mia Mia, Victoria, Australia in 1910. Though building it was a joint effort by the two brothers, ‘ownership’ is normally assigned to John alone. The craft was only marginally capable of flight, and after a crash in August 1910, it was rebuilt and modified, with the new version of it being somewhat more flight capable.
Designed and built by Johan & Reginald Duigan, it made the first flight in Australia by an Australian designed and built plane.
