Photo Dorand

Hello,

Currently on ebay is a photo of an engineless Dorand AR-1 at:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1917-WWI-US...sAAOSw42Feu0Kt

Unusual is the date on the nose of the aircraft.

Regards,

Clint

Hello

Yes, it's the insignia of the AR 230.

The plane is named "Lulu", but I can not find further information based on that.

Re: Photo Dorand

Hello,

Currently on ebay are two photos of Dorand AR-1 aircraft at :

https://www.ebay.fr/itm/393448165791...sAAOSwbT1g8tmk

https://www.ebay.fr/itm/313609893365...QAAOSww3pg9t4Z

The first machine was flown by AR.22,but the second machine, serial number 81 is more tricky.Can anyone identify the markings.

Regards,

Clint

Re: Photo Dorand

Indeed very tricky Clint

The only unit I could locate using such a divided pennant was Esc 12, but they never used
any AR types.

Sorry

Re: Photo Dorand

Hi Stig,

Thanks for the reply.I have been looking through units known to have operated the AR.1 and while I I fear it is probably not significant, Albin Denis' page for AR16 has a photo of an AR.1 with the same diagonal band as the one on ebay,but no sign of the two coloured pennon, so may not be relevant.

Regards,

Clint

Hello,

Currently on delcampe is a photo of a Dorand Do.1, based on the location presumably of Escadrille Do.14
