Bristol Boxkite
The Bristol Boxkite is an early British aircraft designed by the Bristol Aeroplane Company in 1910. It features a distinctive box-like structure with a biplane configuration, consisting of two wings stacked one above the other. The design aimed to provide stability and lift, making it one of the first successful heavier-than-air flying machines.
The Boxkite was notable for its use in early aviation experiments and training. It was powered by a Gnome rotary engine and had a wingspan of about 12 meters. The aircraft played a significant role in the development of aviation technology during the early 20th century.
