I think you are after outriggers, but who and where and which country are still full mystery…. 
R.E-P- II in France had bicycle wheels as outriggers in 1908, but yours must be earlier and not necessarily from France. Or was it?
Edit: Aaa, not paying attention. Withdrawn (the French part).

LM,
Yes mate it was!
Reg,
Not the outriggers! Yoo said it in your first post as I did in my reply!
My post 26118 all but gives you all you need. It's like a treasure map, all you need is X marks the spot, plus another letter

Reg,
I see you've done an edit and said it again, now I am ramminig it home aren't I. Not French as I said before, look for a country with a similar (terminological) history!

Maybe not the cavalry, but here's a little helping hand.
The word that you keep saying Reg, as I did is Bicycle, also often used to refer to tandem undercarriages!!
Now ram it home, X marks the spot!!
I used the word landing gear 'coz that's what my reference calls it.

Yes, but train d'aterissage means the same thing.
Aa, I had discounted it, because Graeme had already coined it in and LM discussed it on the previous page.

Maybe it's me, or the clues, but I can't believe one of you haven't snapped it up yet
Running out of time as I have to go offline for a while soon. If you decode this clue above (it's a URL folks), you will need to go to Russian Aviation Museam link (there's that RAM again). Timer started now

First thing I did when I got back mate, looks like you got it in minus three from my timer start!!

It is the Monoplane by G.K.Demkin or for Mel's list, the Demkin Monoplane

Look above...
And I don't go there via ram-home, because there is a better way…..
