Die 1910 Deperdussin Eindecker war das erste Flugzeug, das in signifikanten Mengen von Aéroplanes Deperdussin gebaut wurde. Der Typ wurde in einer Reihe von Varianten produziert, die erfolgreich in Luftrennen geflogen wurden und 1911 mehrere Rekorde gewannen und von der Australian Central Flying School in Point Cook, Victoria, verwendet wurden. Einige haben überlebt, darunter ein flugfähiges Beispiel in der Shuttleworth Collection in England.

General Characteristics and Role

The Deperdussin C Monoplane, introduced around 1912, represents one of the various designs produced by the Société Pour les Appareils Deperdussin (SPAD). While the Deperdussin company is most famous for its revolutionary high-speed “Monocoque” racers, the Type C was a distinct aircraft, often configured as a powerful military or high-performance touring machine. It was designed by Louis Béchereau and featured the company’s characteristic wire-braced, shoulder-wing monoplane layout. The Type C was a significant step toward faster, more powerful aircraft in the pre-World War I era, showcasing greater speed capabilities than earlier monoplane types from 1910-1911.

Powerplant and Performance

Engine: Often fitted with a powerful rotary engine, such as the Gnôme 140 hp (104 kW) engine.
Engine Type: Air-cooled, rotary engine (the cylinders spin with the propeller).
Maximum Speed: Approximately 160 km/h (99 mph; 86 knots). This was a high speed for the era, preceding the speed records set by the highly specialized Deperdussin Monocoque racer.
Lateral Control: Achieved via wing warping (twisting the flexible wings), as ailerons were not yet standard for all monoplanes of this period.
Fuselage Construction: Generally utilized a fabric-covered wire-braced wooden box-girder, though the company pioneered the lighter, stronger monocoque construction on its specialized racers.

Historical Context

Racing Legacy: The Deperdussin company was renowned for producing record-breaking racing aircraft, which informed the design of its military and high-performance touring models like the Type C.
Military Use: Military variants of Deperdussin monoplanes were adopted by the French Aviation Militaire and the British Royal Flying Corps for reconnaissance and training before World War I.
Company Reorganization: The Deperdussin company was reformed as SPAD (Société Pour l’Aviation et ses Dérivés) in 1913 after its founder, Armand Deperdussin, faced legal troubles. Under the new name, it went on to produce some of the most famous fighter aircraft of World War I.
