KOZLOWSKI`S PLANE PLANE OF THE POLISH AIRCRAFT PIONEER FROM 1910

Kozłowski's plane was a Polish civilian plane from the beginning of the 20th century. The machine was partially flown in 1910. The drive was provided by a single engine Anzani with a power of 60 HP. The machine was 9 meters long with a wingspan of 10.2 meters. Of course, the machine did not have any on-board weapons. The presented plane was built by a car mechanic, Stefan Kozłowski, who was also a great enthusiast of aviation. In 1909 he went to Germany to broaden his knowledge in this field and where he also developed plans for his plane. At the beginning of 1910, he started building the machine in Warsaw. The plane was made of elements imported from France and Germany, and work on it was completed in April 1910. In May and June this year, Stefan Kozłowski made a few very short flights on it, unfortunately the machine had an accident, and due to financial problems it could not be renovated. Kozłowski's plane is the first plane built in Warsaw and one of the pioneering Polish aviation planes.
