AIRCRAFT COLOURS AND MARKINGS OF THE FIRST WORLD WAR ERA

Pfalz A.I/II


The Pfalz A series were licence built copies of the Morane-Saulnier Type L. The designation A.I was given to those fitted with the 80hp Oberursel, while the A.II had the 100hp Oberursel. P.61 was given a fixed machine gun and became the prototype E.II
The basic finish was plain overall with black finished metalwork. An interesting variation was the aircraft of Feld-Flieger Abteilung 9b which were given red/white stripes while on the Italian front to help their Austrian allies at a time when Germany was not yet at war with Italy
