The Farman F.80 was a 1920s French biplane designed by Farman as a basic trainer. [1]
The F.80 was intended to compete against the Hanriot HD-14 as a basic trainer. It was an equal span two-bay tractor biplane with tandem open cockpits for instructor and pupil. It had a tailskid landing gear with the two main units widely spaced for stability on the ground. The aircraft also had a pair of auxiliary wheels in front to prevent the aircraft nosing-over on the ground and damaging what was then an expensive wooden propeller. [1]
The aircraft did not meet with any success and was not ordered into production. [1]
