Hello,

Due to the date of manufacture I have some doubts as to my choice, but it does not hurt to try.

Judging by the look of the chassis, the shape of the wing and the arrangement of tail section this may be Harlan Eindecker.

The machine was constructed in 1911. It was two-seater, reconnaissance monoplane. Two of these planes were purchased by Ottoman Empire from Germany among with the other monoplanes in 1911. During the Balkan War both of the planes which were sent to the front were captured by the advancing Bulgarian Forces.

Unfortunately, I do not have any information on the use of the airplane in 1914 or later.

Greetings

Marek
