remarks
In all these cases the ‘ex’-column list two serial numbers. In all cases the first listed number
(mostly a three or four figure number) is the c/n. The previous identities listed in most
cases with a suffix like /14, /15, /16, /17 or /18 are the true former German serial numbers.
Page 33:
Rumpler 6B-1: Serialnumber 1075 was not assigned to a Rumpler 6B-1 but to a
Hansa-Brandenburg KDW. Could the final two figures have been transposed accidently?
I.e. the serial number of this 6B-1 should have been 1057 ?
Friedrichshafen FF.39: 1549 and 1550 are Friedrichhafen FF.49B models while the other
Listed serial numbers are Friedrichshafen FF.49C versions. There is hardly any external or
Even internal difference between a FF.39 and a FF.49 except for a strengthened tail section.
I cannot blame anyone for not seeing these difference.
Hansa-Brandenburg W.29: This same applies to the s/ns 2018, 2110 and 2112: These are
In fact Hansa-Brandenburg W.12 aircraft. Again there is only an internal structural difference
between a W.12 and a W.29.

Maule MX-7: Exact type designation is Maule MX-7-235. The right c/n presentation therefore
should be 10081C (adding the letter ‘C’)
Page 237:Piper L-18B Cub: At least two L-18Bs have appeared on the Greek civil register as follows:
49-2823 to SX-ADF and 49-2838 to SX-ADD. I cannot belief former Turkish Army aircraft
ever appeared on the Greek civil register and therefore I think these two aircraft may have
been original operated by the Greek Army. I feel this is additional proof that not all 105 L18Bs went to Turkey
The L-4J’s were coded “01-15”
One L-18B was coded “074”
Some sources say that 222 L-18B/C were delivered
Some sources say that 112 L-21B were delivered
