WWI Military Bi-Plane Crash Disaster Real Photo ub364 - eBay (item 400056378238 end time Jun-23-09 18:58:08 PDT)
Okay,at first sight,it looks like a German aircraft.But as I looked closely,the cross insignia is just a cloth over the national cockade.I presume its a hospital aircraft.And as I looked closer,you can barely make out the cockade thats underneath the cloth.My best guess is that the cockade is of the earlier U.S. Air Service star cockade.I don't know the aircraft though.
So whats my results
