MORANE-SAULNIER TYPE N
Xem pfesne znamo, kolik kusu letounu Morane-Saulnier N bylo vlastne vyrobeno, je mozne, ze jich
bylo pouze 49 kusu. Presto byl tento typ pouzivan letectvi tfi statu a na fronte lispesne bojoval vice nez
rok. Je to take mozna nejslavnejsi typ firmy Morane-Saulnier, snad proto, ze je mylne spojovan se
slavnym francouzskvm pilotem Rolandem Garrosem. Traduje se, ze na nem Garros bojove letal a byl
na nem sestfelen. A take, ze Garrosiiv vynalez, na vrtuli namontovane ocelove kliny, odrazejici kulky
kulometu stfilejiciho skrz vrtuli, inspiroval A.Fokkera k vynalezu synchronizatoru, umozfiujiciho
prostfeiovat vrtuli bez rizika jejiho poskozeni, Toto vse je bohuzel legendou. Garros na tomto typu
nikdy bojove neletal, pouzival hornoplosny Morane-Saulnier L. Garros sice uspesne pfedvadel prototyp
Morana N na leteckem mitingu v Aspern u Vidne, ale po vypuknuti valky na bojove pouziti typu N
nikdo nepomyslel. Teprve kdyz byl Garros v dubnu 1915 sestfelen, objevil se na fronte prototyp s
napisem Le VengeurYMstitel/ na trupu, pilotovany Garrosovym pfitelem E.Gilbertem. Pote byla
objednana mala se'rie a stroje, oznacene jako MoS.6C.l se dostaly do vyzbroje nekolika eskadril. Letali
na nich i velmi slavni piloti, jako Jean Navarre nebo slavny akrobat Pegoud, ktery na Moranu N
vybojoval sest vitestvi.
Britsky letecky sbor, RFC, pouzival Morany N, vyzbrojene kulometem Lewis, az do srpna 1916.
Slouzily u 1., 3. a pfedevsim u 60.squadrony. Britove typ N nazyvali Morane Bullet. V dubnu 1916 ho
porovnavali ve cvicnem souboji s ukofistenym Fokkerem E.III. V tomto souboji se Morane ukazal jako
lepsi letadlo ve vsech parametrech, presto vsak nebyl u pilotu obliben pro spatnou podelnou stabilitu a
tim narocnou pilotaz. Pomerne dlouho pouzivalo mirne modifikovane Morany N, vyzbrojene
kulometem Maxim, ruske letecvo. Rusove uvazovali i o licencni vyrobe, ale ta se neuskutecnila.

MORANE-SAULNIER TYPE N
It is not known exactly how many Morane-Saulnier type N's were actually manufactured. It is
possible there were only as few as 49 of them. Despite this, they were used by the airforces of three
countries and fought successfully at the front line for over a year. It is probably the most famous
aircraft of the Morane-Saulnier company, perhaps because it was erroneously associated with the
famous French pilot Roland Garros. The legend has it that Garros flew one in battle, and was shot
down in it. It also says that Garros invented propeller-mounted steel wedges, which deflected the
bullets from the machine gun shooting through the propeller arc. This inspired Ant. Fokker to invent
the sv-chronizer. which allowed the bulle:s to pass through the propeller arc without the risk of
damage. ..":?. •_;-::mrarelv. is ;-js: a myth. Garret never iew Morane N in battle, he used the topwing

Morane proved itself to he the better aircraft in all parameters. Despite this, it was not favored by the
pilots, due to its low longitudinal stability and thus difficult ctntrol. For a relatively long time, slightly
modified Morane N's, armed with the Maxim machine gun. were used by the Russian airforce. The
Russians considered manufacturing them under licence, but that never happened.
