Spijker aeroplanes

During the Great War the dutch factory Trompenburg, welknow of the Spijker cars, had also an aircraft department.

First they build the Farman HF-22 under lisence, but in 1917 Mr. Vannehard (from France) designed an Scout plane, only one prototype.

At the end of the war he designed an two-seat biplane trainer the V-2.

Which was build for the Naval and Army airforce, it had one problem, the engine and Thulin of 80/90 hp which gives a lot of problems.

Now I will try to make an drawing scale 1 : 10 with construction details, but there is nothing.

Now I received the information that one fuselage was in Amsterdam at an exhibition (ELTA) 1august until 12 September 1919, without any fabric, so it shows the construction.

There should have been a picture in a France magazine, probably L'Aeronautique.

Is there any body who knows were is that magazine and can help me with an good scan at a high resolution, so I can study this for the drawings.

I should be very pleased.

Thanks

Jan
