Aeg D-1

hey, does anyone have any info on the AEG D-1 ? It seems only three were built, so there isn't much info on it. I really need bluprints, pictures, etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

As Shipbuilder stated only the three prototypes were built, numbers 4400-4402/17. Höhndorf was KIA in 4400/17. R.

Perhaps I should have said KIC ? In any event he was killed on a test flight of 4400/17 on 5Sep17 over Ire le Sec while with Jasta 14. R.
