Plflaz - Clmax - 0,78, AoA - 16 deg
Fokker - Clmax - 0,67, AoA - 16 deg
Albatros - Clmax- 0,68, AoA - 14 deg
SpadXIII - Clmax- 0,52, AoA - 14 deg
They look somewhere very low but are quite possible.
Chart for Pflaz:

The above set of data was, probably, retrieved from the NACA reports. The scale factor is "twice dynamic pressure". In modern terms such values shall be multiplied by two. All the data come from a small scale test with a low Reynolds number.
