Ok, it is an Alb D.V or D.Va, impossible to recognize.

Full point to Jay and congratulations!

Breguet's Crash Files

The Rules :

1. All aircraft are of the 14-18 period (Must have left the ground during this period).
2. The score board, link and rules must be copied to the beginning of each thread, so that we know where we are. The score board and the correct answer to the challenge must also be placed at end of each thread.
3. All "ACES" with a score of 5.0 or higher must obey the 3.0 hour handicap. All others with a score of ZERO to 4.99 may start immediately, if not sooner! Offenders will be dealt with severely!
4. To be eligible for correct ID an answer must include at least one characteristic of the aircraft that helped in its identification.
5. And whom ever wins this challenge will have to provide a new one! If this can not be done for any reason, please PM Breguet and he will take over as host!
6. If an ace gives the correct answer too early, the challenge is over, he gets no point but has to post the next challenge. In lieu of the fact that the "novices" have in effect been "cheated" of their "exclusive" time that next post should be a relatively easy one. Anyone repeating the correct answer at the right time gets neither a point nor the right to post the next challenge.
7. The final arbitrator of all things to do with the "rules" is Breguet.

I submit the following for your educational and entertainment purposes only:

Bonjour à tous

The rectangular wings , struts arrangement( at the end of the lower wing) ,radiator ,seem to be those of a
late ALBATROS C I

Cheers

Richard

Flamingo · 28 October 2009, 02:45 AM

Hi Jay

from the curved wing cut outs I would say Alb C.III

Lodzermensch · 28 October 2009, 02:47 AM

Hello,

Judging by the shape of upper wing cut-out, front radiator, exhaust stack and the shape of rear cockpit cut-out this seems to be the Albatros C.Ib – dual-control trainer.

Regards

Marek

Flamingo · 28 October 2009, 04:02 PM

When looking closer there seems to be no gun ring so it could be a late Alb B.II.
The constant chord aileron does not fit the C.I.

FOKKERJ · 29 October 2009, 02:03 AM

Hi Guys,

Make up you mind!

Check out the rudder!

CHEERS, FOKKERJ

Here's a better fotograf:

NO THAT's NOT IT!

It's clearly an LFG Roland C.II/Albatros C.Ia Hybrid!!!!

It crashed on it's test flight and the "Tandem" Design was not persued any further!

See:

Breguet's Crash File #42 I'm sure!

Points to follow.

FOKKERJ · 29 October 2009, 02:17 AM

Thanks to all of you that participated in this challenge.

Lodzermensch · 29 October 2009, 05:49 AM

Hello,

Jay,

Are you absolutely sure about the type? Do not get me wrong but many parts of the aircraft do not match the Albatros C.III type.

Regards

Marek

richard B · 29 October 2009, 07:08 AM

For instance ,ailerons and distance between outer struts and lower wing end

Lodzermensch · 29 October 2009, 08:20 AM

Hi,

Not to mention the shape of cut-out which is not curved (concave) and the shape of starboard elevator which is not such oval as it was in Alb. C.III.

Regards

Marek
