The Farman F.150 was a 1920s French twin-engined biplane designed by Farman as a day bomber.[1]
Development
The F.150 was a twin-engined unequal-span biplane to the B.3 specification, which could be fitted with fixed landing gear or floats.[1] Although the design was an improvement on the earlier Goliath, it did not increase in performance, and it was not ordered into production.[1]
