Berlingschon Air Force Burgess-Dunne d.8

Auto Credit Based on Yourlocalhuman's War challenge: 1917 (closed)

The Dunne d.8 was a tailess, floating swept wing bi-plane with a push prop instead of traditional prop designs designed by J. W. Dunne to have inherent stability. It actually flies very well and is ok in a dogfight. This is as close to the real thing as I can get. This specific variant was based off the one built for the Canadian Air force and it is also the earliest flying wing that I can find. Trim all the way down to take off from water and it'll stabilize more at higher speeds. Please upvote if you like it, comment what you think, and follow for more.

    There was a lever for trim but I don't know where it went.

    Rotate the guns on the X axis to -0.250 for the best accuracy.

    @MitchellAviation I wonder if you could make a weaponized Wright Flyer for your next War Challenge 1917 project.
