Two Fokker D.V Photos
Hello All,
Currently on ebay at: Foto, Flieger, Flugzeug, 1917 Jasta, Fokker, Boelcke, 1. WK Fok D 5 2729/16 | eBay and Foto, Flieger, Flugzeug, Staffelabzeichen Billimen Jasta, Fokker, Boelcke, 1. WK | eBay are images of Fokker D.vs. Given that several aircraft in the second photo seem to have a common unit marking and that the first photo has a serial number D 2729/16 I wonder if anyone can identify the unit shown? Regards, Clint |

I don,t see any guns on either picture, training units used these aircraft that were stripped of armament. they used this plane for training to get pilots used to rotary engines again after the inline engines. The combat Aircraft that were armed served mostly as interceptors protecting airship and naval bases. Lt. Hess flew Fok. D.V.2775/16 while he was at Kamp-Einsitzer Schule Warschau in May 1917, this aircraft was also stripped of armament.
