HENRI FARMAN, MAURICE FARMAN, H. & M. FARMAN AEROPLANE COMPANY. Farman Sport,1924. Creators: Henri Farman, Maurice Farman, H. & M. Farman Aeroplane Company.

HENRI FARMAN, MAURICE FARMAN et H. & M. FARMAN AEROPLANE COMPANY. Single-engine light biplane. In 1919, the H.& M. Farman Aeroplane Company of France produced the Farman Sport two-place sport and light commercial biplane. In 1922, C.T. Ludington and Wallace Kellett of Philadephia, Pennsylvania, formed the Ludington Exhibition Company as agents for Farman aircraft, and in 1923, they imported their first two Sports. Their pilot flew this aircraft, serial number 15, C-72, in the 1924 "On to Dayton Race," which included flying over the treacherous Allegheny Mountains. After suffering severe damage in 1928, NC-72's airworthiness certificate was revoked and it languished for years in Pennsylvania and New Jersey until Ken Hyde of Warrenton, Virginia, restored it. C.T. Ludington himself identified the aircraft, allowing Hyde to reclaim the NC-72 registration. This is the last remaining Farman Sport.
