Morning mate, sorry, but not French.
A clue to start the morning - the co-designer of this aircraft is probably best known for his racing aircraft. After his involvement with this particular manufacturer he went on to form his own company.

Might it therefore be a Curtiss?
Just noted that the aforementioned co-designer of the aircraft did spend a short period of time at Curtiss, although he also spent time at several other manufacturers.

Morning Gents,
Not going to have much time today and just grabbing a quick coffee!
Is it anything to do with Alfred Verville, who worked with all those mentioned by skytrain plus Thomas-Morse and others.
Back to work now, so good luck guys.

Hi Sinco
Just about to get a coffe myself!
Thats more like it - yes Alfred Verville was the co-designer of this aircraft.
And before anybody suggests it, its not a Thomas-Morse machine.
