Taddéoli La Mouette

La Mouette seaplane of Emile Taddéoli on Lake Geneva in March 1912

Émile Taddéoli’s Gnôme-engined, Voisin-inspired canard float biplane “Mouette” was designed by his mechanic Prampolini and built at the Perrot & Cie workshop. It flew 80 meters during the first test flight on Lac Léman in March 1912, but sunk when landing, as the main floats got submerged instead of skimming the surface. After that, the project was abandoned.

The Tachikawa R-HM is a refined two-seat cabin version of the Mignet pre-war Flying Flea, powered by a 90 hp Continental C90-12F engine. It is generally similar to the H.M.310 Estafette produced by Avioes Mignet do Brasil.

The R-HM is a tandem monoplane or heavily-staggered biplane, lift being divided between the two surfaces which give a slot effect.
