Re: Photos Gotha G.IV
Hello Clint
The serial was 377/16, as can be seen on the rudder (last picture of the link). The rudder was preserved and is in a small museum near Epinal. Pilot was Offizierstellvertreter Richard Krone, deceased one day later. The victory was officially given at Guynemer, but it seems that almost all work was done by Chainat, generating some skirmish between the two pilots. Chainat was sent at a "morale recovery" hospital,transferred to the technical service (Staé) and never returned to the front.
Regards
Jean
