| Description |
This is the earliest original aeroplane in Belgium, having made its first flight on 16th August 1911. It was designed and built by César Battaille and between 1911 and 1914 it made several flights in the hands of either Bataille himself or Frenchman Jean Cassagne. Long believed lost, its remains were donated to the National Museum by the Battaille family in 1971. A very long restoration followed, using the original fuselage and tail together with the original upper wing which was found suspended in the Battaille factory in 1991. The completed aeroplane is on display at what is known as the Brussels Air Museum, although it is actually the Air and Space Section of the Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and Military History.
