James J. Parker, of Fulton, NY, made the first trial and successful flight with this machine completely of his own construction starting on skids from the ice of Lake Neahtawanta 1910-1911. A flight of a mile and return was reportedly made. The generally Farman-like plane was equipped with a four-cylinder, two-cycle motor of his own make and had a unique tandem-mounted ailerons arranged between the wings.
