Re: Photo album

I got a reply from my friend Kees Kort

The 1912-13 photos of the Grade look-a-like aircraft were built by the Westdeutsche Piloten-Schule who started their business at Holton in 1912

They are known to have built at least two aircraft and after moving to Krefeld in 1913 ceased when WW 1 started.

Obvious perhaps when you see the hangar in the background and read the photo texts (even the aircraft is labeled on the fin WPS)

I have never heard of the company/school, so very interesting to me.

Cheers
Stig
