__NOTOC__ The Nieuport-Delage NiD 30 was a French airliner which entered service in 1920.〔Taylor 1989, 698〕〔''The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Aircraft'', 2600〕 It was a conventional biplane design with an enclosed cabin that seated four passengers and an open cockpit for the pilot. Provision was also made for a wireless transmitter, receiver, and operator.〔''Flight'', (8 January 1920, p. 37 ). Retrieved 5 April 2012.〕 Seven examples were operated by ''Compagnie générale transaérienne'' on its Paris–London route on twice-daily return services.〔〔Hartmann 2006, 21〕 Following the loss of one of these machines〔F-CGTY〕 in thick fog over the Channel on 27 April 1920, the remaining NiD-30s were fitted with an early audible guidance system.〔 However, after a number of further accidents, these were withdrawn from service in February 1921.〔 A larger, six-passenger variant with sesquiplane wings was developed as the NiD 30T2 and displayed at the 1921 ''Salon de l'Aéronautique'',〔''Flight'', (22 December 1921, p. 841 ). Retrieved 5 April 2012.〕 but this was not produced when testing revealed problems with the design.〔〔 ==Variants== * NiD 30T1 - four-passenger production version with Sunbeam Matabele engine (7 built) * NiD 30T2 - six-passenger version with Darracq 12A engine (1 built) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nieuport-Delage NiD 30」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
