Heinkel-designed seaplane prototype for detachable-wing biplanes to be carried by submarines
Carter 1911 biplane
In the UK in 1911 Mr. Carter was out on the new machine and with the engine running fairly well, the machine made a few hops. The machine is of the biplane type of very short span, with the upper planes of slightly greater span than the lower ones. There is no elevator in front, but that position is occupied by the engine and propeller. The engine is an 8-cyl. made by the Nonpareil Motor Fitting Co. at Birmingham. At present it gives about 60-hp, but when properly tuned up it is expected to reach about 80-hp Mr.Carter succeeded in getting the biplane off the ground for short distances.
Mr. Carter was also out with his biplane after having made a few alterations to the tail. The machine rises very rapidly, in one case getting off the ground in 15 ft. but no extended flights were made owing to the fact that the engine was not running up to form.
Carroll and Stupar 1918 biplane
In the latter part of 1918 Carroll and Stupar built a biplane powered with a 15 hp Excelsior motorcycle engine. The span was 26 ft and it weighed 225 lb.
