Hello,


Currently on ebay is a photo of a Rumpler 6B 2 at:


https://www.ebay.de/itm/X5937-Foto-W...4AAOSwqLlf-YCL


The serial is a little confusing. A misapplied serial for 1444 which was a Rumpler 6B 2 perhaps?

Re: Photos German Naval Aircraft
 

An interesting inscription Clint

In Sweden we had something similar, female defence minded organizations which collected money to subscribe and pay for military aircraft.

Looks like this was something similar and as a thanks the "Bund" got their name painted on the aircraft. Were there collections in Germany?
Most likely I would say.

Cheers

Re: Photos German Naval Aircraft
 

Hi Stig,


I imagine every state with a navy had a simialar association. Der Flottenbund deutscher Frauen to give it its full name was a female component of the more famous Flottenverein. Charity work and collections were indeed undertaken in support of the navy. Reasonable to assume that there was a female component to the British Naval League of the same era.

Re: Photos German Naval Aircraft
 

Hello,


Currently on ebay are a series of photos of German naval aircraft as follows:


Friedrichshafen FF 49c N.4 Is the a serial allocated to aircraft involved in mine clearing operations from Nordeney post war? Are the twin stripes associated with SFS Nordeney during the war. A machine marked in the same manner was Serial 1750,or perhaps that was the prior identity of N.4?

https://www.ebay.de/itm/Q051-Foto-WW...sAAOSwqo1gJTd2


Foreground Friedrichshafen FF 33l Serial 1263 (?) or is it 1253?, Behind that Albatros W4 Serial 1107. Many more W.4 to the rear of the photo but serials hard to read.Anyone?

Re: Photos German Naval Aircraft
 

Clint
Since this aircraft clearly has pusher propellers (the WD.14 had tractor ones)
I would say it is a WD.11

Cheers
Stig

Re: Photos German Naval Aircraft
 

Hi Stig,


Thanks. It certainly is a WD.11.I should have checked rather than gone on memory as I'd remembered things in reverse. Worse even than this if I'd checked the Aeronaut volume on Gotha,I wouldn't have posted at all,since the photo is included there.This rather makes me wonder about the FF 33e too.

Clint

Re: Photos German Naval Aircraft
 

Hello,


Currently on ebay are a series of photos of German Naval aircraft. They are captioned as original,so hopefully this is the case,but one or two do seem a bit familiar...


Land Based Albatros D Types


https://www.ebay.de/sch/i.html?_dkr=...nkw=albatros44


But I rather wonder if D.V 1103/17 is not still based with Jasta 26 given the 26 (coincidence perhaps) on the tailplane. Can anyone assist? A less clear photo of this aircraft is included on P.36 of Jon Guttman's Naval Aces of World War 1 Part 2 where it is stated to believed to have been Osterkamp's machine. In any event do other MFJ I aircraft have the roman numerals above the serial number?


Also my attempt to subsume all the naval Albatros unfer a single link has resulted in the selection of a few aircraft not belonging to this thread.
