EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Engineering Division XNBL-1 AS64215, also known as "The Barling Bomber," "Witteman-Lewis XNBL-1," and "McCook Field Project P-303," during its manufacturing process at the Witteman-Lewis Co. in Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey. Designed by Walter Barling, the XNBL-1 was an innovative large triplane, featuring six 420hp Liberty L-12 engines, quad landing gear, and four tails. The "NBL" in its name stands for "Night Bombardment-Long distance." Contracted to Witteman-Lewis Co. for manufacture, the XNBL-1 was shipped to Wright Field in Dayton, Ohio, disassembled and in sections, via train. The aircraft made its first flight on August 22, 1923. Despite its impressive design and capabilities, the XNBL-1 was only flown a few times before it was dismantled and scrapped in 1928. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the manufacturing process of this groundbreaking aircraft, which was designed to push the boundaries of aviation technology during the early 1920s. The XNBL-1's large triplane design, powerful engines, and advanced landing gear were all ahead of their time, making it an intriguing piece of aviation history.
