Barret de Nazaris Airplane Prototypes & Projects

[hesham]

Hi,

Mr. Léon Lacroix was a French designer,he associated with a numbers
of other designers to create a light airplanes,most of them were very
similar in conception to Mignet Pou-du-Ciel.

He began with Barret de Nazaris to develop a LN-1 Autoplan,a single
seat tandem monoplane tourist light aircraft,powered by one 32 hp engine,followed by the same idea,the LN-2 & LN-4,but the later was
different a little,the LN-3 was a single seat tourist biplane,powered
by one 40 hp engine.

Barret de Nazaris alone,developed a glider looks like Elytroplane shape,
maybe called N.5,the N.6 was a single seat pusher tandem monoplane Project,later the N.7 was a single seat tailless pusher airplane,and the
tail fins mounted almost at the tip of the wings,also remained a Project
only.

Sorry for this mistake,

the N.6 was a single seat ultralight tailless pusher airplane,powered by
one 18 hp engine, but the anther pusher biplane Project,maybe called
N.5 ?.

 

[hesham]

Maybe I am wrong,

I search in my files again,and found this Info about N.5,please can anyone translate.

Proposed translation:

N-5 Autoplan
Fully designed by Barret de Nazaris, this machine had a span of 6.7 m (front wing), was strongly built (300kg empty, that is a lot) in spruce and plywood. Engine: Train 40 cv. A number of building tricks was included to help amateur building. We do not know it if actually flew.
Front span: 7m, rear span : 5 m, lenghth: 4.6 m, area: 12 m², empty weight: 210 kg, full weight: 385kg, engine: Salmson 9 Ad, 40 cv

Thank you my dear Patvig.

My dear Patvig,

please I want to check if this caption was for this Project or not,and thanks.

During WWII, Barret de Nazaris built a glider whose vertical stabilisation concept was similar than the one used in elytroplans. Unfortunately, due to various defects (centering too backside,towing speed too high, bad use of elytroplan principle), this machine was damaged during fisrt flight. Barret de Nazaris broke his leg.

Thank you my dear Patvig,

and maybe they meant this airplane in artist drawing ?.

I don't think so because the text tells about a glider and the dawings shows the cicle of a propeller at the rea.

What's more, the drawing bears no resemblance to an elytroplan. Contrast it to any of de Rougé's designs, or those of his followers, and the difference will be evident.

Yes my dear Avion,

it was only a Project,without designation number.

Here is a 3-view to N.6.

From Ailes 4/1945,

here is Barret-Vazaris Type-80.

 

[hesham]

Maybe a Project,I displayed it before.

 

[hesham]

From Ailes 1/1952,

here is a Lacroix-Nazaris-Bourdin LNB.11 aircraft.

 

[hesham]

From Ailes 5/1952,

here is a Bourdin Project for tailless single seat tourist monoplane,maybe it
was 2LB.10 ?.
