Hi Nick,


Thanks for the response. What I was aiming at in my last post, was particularly that the type of cross appeared to rule out a Aviatik C type, specifically a putative 3347. What would interest me, is whether any of the other photos you've seen were carried by machines constructed later than 1914. So de facto ruling out an Aviatik C type. No doubt other 1914 built, machines did carry this style of cross, including the Aviatik B.659/14 Koblenz shown in the first link in this thread.



While totally accepting Stig's view that a definitive identification of the machine in the photo as B.347/14 remains elusive, I would tend to regard the circumstantial evidence as pointing more strongly in that direction than for 3347, the style of cross being just one more eleement supporting the case, along with the serial fitting into a known series. I'm also increasing tending to view the first charecter on the fuselage as different from the second, but would readily admit confirmation bias is probably coming into play on my part!



Regards,


Clint
