Hanriot HD 41H Type 1?

Thank you for your answers, friends! So I am going to store the thing as Hanriot HD 17 E2.

Best regards, RT

Yes, I think this is in fact an HD.17 E2 from ‘les Écoles de pilotage de Berre et d’Hourtin’ (1922 – 1926) No 1 was ‘” un numéro de série connu” See Lucien Morareau “Les Aeronefs de l’Aviation Maritime’ page183.

Hi Mothminor,
splendid idea! Thanks! Guess you’re right with Hanriot HD-17!

The rudder looks like French markings with the anchor and red/white/blue vertical stripes. I think that Greece at that time used blue/white/blue. Is it possible that some or at least one HD41H was operated by the French before being sold abroad?

What I also wondered was is it instead an uncowled HD17?

…an additional thought: comparison of the vertical stabilisers/rudders of the three operating countries
Maybe RT’s photo is from a Greece aircraft…

Hi RT,
first I want to thank you for sharing this image!
Guess there is some paint shopping in the water around the left float! But nevertheless a nice image!

To your question: 12 HD 41H were built by Hanriot (mainly for Greece and Portugal) with a Salmson 9AC 120hp engine
and 10 HD 41H in licence by Zmaj with a Walter Mars 145hp engine.

In my tiny pic [ATTACH=CONFIG]239787[/ATTACH]
you can see an example of the numbereing system by Hanriot, “H320 TYPE 1926” – No 1005
guess in your photo it means: “HD41 TYPE H” – but you can’t recognize any letter behind the word TYPE –
and the “1” is perhaps a serial number by the operator.

But maybe I’m wrong…
