 Seeking a three view drawing of this absolutely weird airplane. Thanks. Even dimensions would be useful.

Here is at least another picture.

Bad news: you have to judge the size by the people and draw the lines from the photos.
Good news: nobody will tell you it is wrong!

 There is a very good rear view photo on flyingmachines.ru website. Enter de monge in the search box. As the 150 horsepower Hispano Suiza engine used a 245 centimeter (96 inches) propeller, this can be used to determine other dimensions. It is quite possible that the wheels were the same diameter as used on a Salmson 2a2.
