hallo,
there are just a few pieces known to exist from german and austrian build albatrosses,
the most substantial are a piece of the rear fuselage side and a seat in a scottish museum.
the machineguns with the related mounting and a small piece of fuselage in the sience museum in london. there are e few siderudders from D III and V
but thats more or less all from earlier versions.
there are substantil pieces from a DV in the charles gosse collection. also in france substancial wreck pieces from a D Va exists.
in the belgrade airforce museum they also have pieces from a D V or DVa.

from austrian D III planes e few side rudderes exist in italy and austria. there are also a very corroded elevator in italy as a piece of the left hand dashboard. thats pretty much everything i know of.
cheers
