Re: Unidentified German Biplane

Hello

After digging a bit in the early years of Aviatik (then in Mulhouse, Alsace, but not France at this moment), the photo comes from a serie of shots taken for the factory. The same plane, under a slight different angle, appears in that document written by the local aéro-club, named Aviatik... :

So the plane could be the Aviatik P12, the first prototype of the biplane serie designed by Robert Wild

Other early Aviatik pictures can be found here :

Jean
