Maxfield Monoplane

   The Maxfield Monoplane was designed and constructed at Birmingham by Alfred P. Maxfield, a motor engineer. The engine fitted was an air-cooled twin-cylinder Garrard-Maxfield which drove twin propellers. A biplane elevator was carried in front of the wings, with a biplane tail to their rear. The undercarriage wheels were steerable. The machine was flown successfully by Maxfield on 30th September, 1909.

Photo from Tiffany Aldridge-Payne: I’m currently researching my great great uncle. And I’ve come across some pictures of a plane that he built. This is him on the left in the hat. I believe this was at the hotel where it was on display.
