Kaiserliche Werft Danzig 1105


Imperial German Navy seaplanes numbers 1105 to 1106 were the only two examples of a unique design produced for the navy's flying service during the First World War. They were unarmed biplanes of conventional configuration with staggered wings of unequal span. The empennage included a sizable ventral fin. Intended as training aircraft, the pilot and instructor sat in tandem, open cockpits. The undercarriage consisted of twin pontoons. The interplane strut arrangement was remarkable for its day, consisting of N-struts and V-struts without any rigging wires.
These machines were supplied to the naval base at Putzig at the end of 1917.
