The Farman MF.11 was called Shorthorn by the British, lacking the long skids with forward elevator of the MF.7 Longhorn. A British naval MF.11 flew the first bombing mission of World War I near Ostend on 21 December 1914. There is little information about this machine in Brussels, but it appears to be authentic.
