Re: Brandenburg C.I Photos

Hi Stig,


Thanks for the reply. The aircraft is definitely 269.14. The reason I say this being that the 269 series Brandenburg C.I finished at 269.72.Well unless you've read some work I have not.


As regards the year, I think the seller became a little overstimulated by the Red stars. The Bolsheviks didn't stage their coup in Russia until October 1917 (and that is allowing for the Julian calendar system in use there). Also the 269 series were accepted between August and November 1917,so with the October Revolution beginning according to the Gregorian calendar November 7th...



Regards,


Clint
