aircrafts in "push/pull" configuration

Enclosed you will find a small list of aircrafts Push/Pull Configuration which I have painstakingly collected
over the last month.
I know this list isn't complete: any help to make it more comprehensive is welcome!

OK let's start with some easy adding:

The Savoia-Marchetti S.55




EDIT:
I saw in your list the Savoia-Marchetti S.65, what a beatiful racer it was! It was really "a pilot between two engines and little more"!


Cheers

Here's a rather bizzare one, the Colani C-309. Although this is a model the aircraft was built, but as far as I know never flown. Well, I never heard about the crash anyway

That looks more like a torture device then an airplane.

A few more:
Bolshoi Bal'Tisky B
Caproni Ca.30, 32, 40, 42, & 46
Farman F222
Tchetverikov ARK-3

Russian Ka-7

Pushing and Pulling in WWI

FOKKER KI (M9)

The Fokker KI (M9) with an 80 hp 7-cyl rotary Oberursel UI engine fore and aft of the central nacelle. Anthony Fokker complained that the twin booms flexed too much and the experiment ended.




THE SIEMENS-SCHUCKERT (SSW) DDr I

Crashed on its maiden flight in November 1917...

Splendid Graeme,
thanks very much for the very rare pics of the Focker and Siemens-Schuckert.
What I'm aiming at is to prepare a listing as complete as possible of aircrafts in push/pull configuration"
(i.e: having both a push and a pull prop in the fuselage, like for instance the Do-335 or the Fokker D/XXIII).
This means excluding all other aircrafts with engine nacelles housing both a push and a pull prop, like for instance the Do-X, many french aircrafts inbetween wars, etc.
I hope I've made my object clear.
Thanks again for putting at my disposal your immense knowledge.

Hi AMCKen,
also this thread has started very well and I'm now looking at all various links that members of our forum were kind enough to provide me with.
A personal thank you: as you have seen from my first short list the [B]Bellanca X855E[B is the first of the list!

Hi Marcogrifo,
you are always very helpful and a good friend.
However please have a look of what I wrote Graeme with post #14. This will save you precious searching time!
I know it's my fault I should have indicated more precisely what I was after and I hope I have cleared now any doubt as to the object of my research.
Thanks again and have a nice evening
carson1934

PS Yes indeed, the S-65 was a splendid contraption!
