I'm in need of information about Matty Laird's 1916 "Boneshaker". Specifically a 3-view. I seem to recall something in an old American Airman, but am coming up blank, so far. Anyone got a lead?

TIA
Charlie

Isn't there a flyable replica of one in the museum at Lakeland, FL? If my memory is correct, then they must have some data files on the type.

I have several photos of the airplane if needed. Also, take a look at the book that is currently available about Laird airplanes.

Try the EAA, I believe they had quite a collection of Laird material.
