Hi, all
I don't know if this one has been already covered - I wasn't able to track anything about it in this forum.
I'm trying to locate a 3-view of the Packard-LaPere LUSAO 11 observation triplane.
I'm pretty sure that I have a little 3-view drawing somewhere in my archives, but I don't remember where (maybe AAHS journal, or wings/airpower or skyways...)

Can you help me?
best regards
erme

in the book TRIPLANES (Peter m Bowers and Ernest m c Dowell) two other pics but no 3 view.
designed by captain Le Peré via the french aviation mission and built by Packard Motor Car(2 prototype).
LUSAO: LE Peré US ARMY OBSERVATION
3 Lewis and a 37mm canon!


for drawings try aviation year book 1919 or 1920 or aerial age magazine.
Greetings.
 
No GA drawing located yet, but a different view in this photo. May I suggest that there could be a GA drawing in Windsock Datafile No. 120 - the Lepere LUSAC-11 by Colin A. Owers (ISBN: 9781902207865).

I just checked Windsock Datafile #120. Unfortunately, there are no images of this airplane therein.
 
Here are a couple more photos from my files.
