Hi Peter,

D-EDES was a Rheinland FR2, the plane is shown here at the ship Monte Rosa during 1941. This ship was operated by the Luftwaffe as a collection point for soldiers recovered from their injuries.

Hallo Merlin

I myself identified this as a Raab Katzenstein minus its lower wings, but I notice the Rheinland was a slightly developed version.

Are you one of those in possession of the German civil register at the time or do you nail the type from some other specific point ?

Cheers
Stig

Hello Stig

you are right, this plane was a further developement of the Raab Katzenstein RK 26a. It is a different plane, but I can not find who build these appr. 5 planes.

The full name of the plane was Rheinland Schwalbe FR2. Most of them were used by the Deutscher Luftsportverband at Mannheim and Düsseldorf in the years 1934 to 1937.
