The Ellehammer triplane was a pioneering aircraft built in Denmark in 1907. Unlike Ellehammer's semi-biplane of the previous year this (otherwise un-named) triplane was capable of making free untethered flights. The aircraft featured three sets of triangular wings attached to an open tubular framework. The upper set was one continuous-span but the lower sets were split and attached either side of the frame. A horizontal stabiliser was fitted aft of the frame.
