A crashed DFW C.V with a similar Monogram (A.S.? or S.A.?) marking is depicted in Windsock Datafile 53 - DFW C.V, by Peter Grosz. The caption reads: 44. Crashed DFW C.V of Flieger-Abteilung 68 showing the rib taping and the breather louvre in front of the tailfin. The aircraft in the Windsock Datafile has the late war narrow balkenkreuzes, different to the crosses on the ebay photo. Col. |

Well done Col
Yes, I can see the small "inverted" strut going from the stabilizor to the fin. The Balkenkreuz visible lasted only a very short time (officially between 17 March 1918 until 10 April 1918) when they were replaced by the simplified Balkenkreuz referred to by Col. These lasted for the remainder of WW 1. Of course in practice it took much more time to repaint the aircraft already at the front, so the aircraft on the photo does not have to have been w/o between the two dates listed. Cheers Stig |
