The Blackburn First Monoplane, also known as Monoplane No 1, was a British experimental aircraft constructed by Robert Blackburn in 1909. It was a high-wing monoplane with the engine and the pilot's seat located on a three-wheeled platform. An 8 foot 6 inch propeller was mounted just below the leading edge of the wing and driven by a chain from the 35 horsepower Green engine below. The only flight, on 24 May 1909, lasted around one minute and ended in a crash in which the aircraft was damaged beyond repair. It was the first aircraft built by the man whose firm would become Blackburn Aircraft, and it was followed by a much more successful second monoplane in 1910.
