Geschichte
Comte AC-11-V
The Comte AC-11-V was a 1930s Swiss three-seat cabin monoplane produced by Flugzeugbau A. Comte for aerial photography and mapping.[1] The AC-11-V was a high-wing monoplane with a taikskid-conventional landing gear and powered by a 220 hp (164 kW) Armstrong Siddeley Lynx radial engine.
Design and development
The enclosed cabin had side-by-side seating for a pilot and co-pilot (or mapping photography specialist).[1] To allow easy access to the cabin the starboard seat folded to one side.[1] Another moveable seat was mounted on rails running the whole length of the cabin; it could be locked in any position on the rails giving access to the side windows.[1] A window was fitted between the pilots' seats to allow drift readings to be made and a further floor window aft allowed a vertical camera to be used.[1]
Operational history
During the Second World War years one aircraft was used by the Swiss Air Force to make detailed maps of Switzerland.
