Morok 1910 monoplane

A monoplane with sliding wing-tips, which allowed it to bypass the lateral control patent wars of the time. It was built by Charles F. Morok of the Morok Aeroplane Co. of New York. His most noted flight was when he flew across the Green Mountains at Rutland, Vermont, but he also gained some notoriety by crashing into the window of a young woman during an attempt to fly across the Hudson River in December 1910.
