<i>Original caption:</i> NEW RACING TYPE BLERIOT MONOPLANE (No. XXVII). - Many details in the design of Bleriot's two-seater model are incorporated in the new single-seater racer with which Bleriot is now experimenting over the sands at Hardelot. The main body is constructed in the form of a double-ended wedge, at the front of which protrudes the 50-h.p. Gnome engine, mounted in position without the employment of a bearing between the propeller and the engine. The stabiliser, as in the two-seater model, is constructed integrally with the fuselage and at the rear edge is hinged the elevator. The overall length of the machine is 7 metres, and the wings, which have a supporting surface of 12 sq. metres, span 8.90 metres from tip to tip. This new model, which weighs 430 kilogs., has been timed to attain a speed of 130 kiloms. an hour.
