I use google, but not image search. I type in a few search keywords and eye-scan the images google finds.

OK, just for fun:

Nice choice sniperton, but I got this one

Focke-Wulf F 19 Ente.

The Focke-Wulf F 19 Ente (German: "Duck") was a German experimental "canard" aircraft in the late 1920s. ( Wikipedia )

Congrats. Here's a video showing it flying:

That is one crazy looking airplane.

Thanks sniperton   

Sure is Max and I can't imagine what the forward visibility of that would have been like.

Not a very good pic but give this one a try.

Yes, finally I know something again
This is just accidentally since I've read a detailed report about early torpedo bombers lately.
The plane in question is a Sopwith Cuckoo, the first british Land-plane specifically built for carrier operations.
It's been introduced as the "Sopwith T.1" and made it's maiden flight in 1917.
It's been named "Cuckoo" after the armistice and following severe issues with the Cuckoo Mk.I's Sunbeam Arab engine, 20 T.1s were converted to use Wolseley Viper engines as shown in this picture.
So to be specific, this is a Sopwith T.1 Cuckoo Mk.II
