Re: Photo LVG C.V

Afternoon Clint

I cannot more than agree with you that FA(A) 250 looks completely possible.
And some kind of unit marking feels more and more likely!
Too much of a co-incidence that all preserved photos were taken vs one single pilot.

The Albatros D.V has been identified before as D.7214/17 so prob correct. What is interesting
to me is that the name von Manteuffel is mentioned.
The crash seems quite terminal and the most likely pilot was von Manteuffel-Szöge who was
shot down 8 May 1918.

He is not mentioned with the previous unit FA(A) 292b you state. Perhaps you have a different
von Manteuffel in mind?

Cheers
Stig
