I totally agree if you have the interest and the spare time you can find anything you want on the internet. Unfortunately even the internet cannot make 100 year old photographs look good. #2 Otto Flugmaschinenwerke monoplane . Regis says is that your final answer. DonL says thats my final answer.

Don you are really good at finding the obscure aircraft.
I couldn't !!!! :shock:

From the 5 sites I found with that Flug name it resembles the aircraft in Mr Rohr's pic.

The one picture that I found was not of the highest quality. It bears a faint resemblence to the Colonels #2 picture. I hope that if there is another quiz that it is much easier than this one. I only have a copy of Jane's Fighting Aircraft of World War I that comes close to this period of aviation. This is the first time in many years that I have opened that book. Good thing that I did because I found my lost Elvis stamps in it. About 10 years ago a friend of mine convinced me that they would be a good investment. Never take investment advice from a friend. Sorry about the Elvis rant. It is getting late, I am off to bed. Night night

Agreed, difficult quiz but I'll give another a go...

However, it's stretching the "US Navy" part of the quiz init ??
