| The LVG W.I was a passenger-carrying floatplane derivative of the wartime C.VI. The rear cockpit was enlarged to carry two passengers and the aircraft had an enlarged vertical tail and rudder to compensate for the forward side area of the floats. Although the photos show rudders of different sizes, they show different stages of development of the only W.I aircraft, which was built in 1919. (Peter M. Grosz Collection/SDTB) |

| Front view of the LVG W.I passenger-carrying floatplane derivative of the LVG C.VI. The W.I definitely had a much more robust structure to support the floats than the earlier floatplane conversions of the LVG C.II. |

| The LVG W.II serial 20/19 was another passenger-carrying floatplane derivative of the wartime C.VI. The W.II appeared to differ from the W.I in the type of engine installed. |
