	The Bristol Br-f2/b (in service from 1916 or early 17 into
at least the early thirties) had ruder and elevator controls in the
rear cockpit.  (I don't think that the engine had throttle controls,
many of the WWI planes didn't.)  It was sometimes used for insertion
of agents behind enemy lines as well.
