Hi Rbailey, Is it a Farman type machine? Thanks, FOKKERJ

It looks like a small Farman with a Voisin type nose. Could it be a Russian built Dux? Many of the French built aircraft look like Farmans, I can't tell.

The designer may have used the Farman layout, but thinking Farman is not likely to get you very far. Not Dux either.

This is the Danish Flyveskolens Vćrksted D.K.-II powered by a Gnome rotary of 50 hp. This trainer was operational from 1916 to 1924 in the Danish army flying force. There was another machine with the designation D.K.-I which only differed in the engine used, a Renault 70 hp (a V-8 engine)
