Aircraft 'Nepomuck' Photo

Hello All,

Currently on ebay is a photograph of an aircraft with the personal name Nepomuck on the fuselage at Flieger Flugzeug Schulflugzeug Markierung Nepomuck | eBay

Has anyone further details on this aircraft, serial number or unit?

Regards,

Clint

Nfw b.i

Hello Again,

At flugzeug in 1871-1918| eBay
the same seller has posted a photograph of the NFW B.I. I'm wondering if the aircraft in my first posting is the same machine?. Unfortunately, the only information I have is from Gray and Thetford's German Aircraft of the First World War,which while not explicitly stating only one NFW B.I was built rather gives that impression. Are both photos this machine?

Regards,

Clint

Nepomuck is a DFW B.I, early variant with fabric covered fuselage, later machines (B.II ??) had plywood fuselage like "Brummer" from this seller.

Inboard position of the crosses on the wings leads me to believe it is in Austrian service, but I could be wrong.
