EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating print captures the innovative design of the Kimball Biplane, created by American designer Kimball in 1909. The most striking feature of this aircraft is its use of eight propellers, all powered by a single motor. While the concept was certainly ahead of its time, it seems that there were some issues with the plane's functionality as noted in the caption - "The plane flies, kind of, but there are problems."
Despite these challenges, the Kimball Biplane remains a notable piece of aviation history for its unique design and ambitious engineering. This image serves as a reminder of the early days of flight when inventors and designers were pushing boundaries and experimenting with new ideas to achieve manned flight.
As we look at this historical photograph from Mary Evans Picture Library, we can't help but marvel at the ingenuity and determination of those who dared to dream big in pursuit of conquering the skies. The Kimball Biplane may not have been a commercial success, but it represents an important chapter in the ongoing evolution of air transport technology.
