A Pfalz parasol powered by the 100 hp Oberursel U.I engine. Under the Idflieg system this version was designated the Pfalz A.II. | J.Herris - Pfalz Aircraft of WWI /Centennial Perspective/ (5) |
The spring scenery indicates the Pfalz 1915 biplane was rolled out in the spring of 1915. Pfalz engineers added a biplane wing cellule to a Parasol fuselage. The engine was a 7-cylinder, 80 hp Clerget. | J.Herris - Pfalz Aircraft of WWI /Centennial Perspective/ (5) |
The second version of the Pfalz 1915 biplane, powered by 100 hp Oberursel U.I engine, was probably photographed during evaluation at the Flieger-Ersatz-Abteilung in Schleissheim. | M.Dusing - German Aviation Industry in WWI. Volume 2 /Centennial Perspective/ (85) |
In 1915, engineers at Pfalz-Werke also attempted to develop a B airplane. A 60 hp Clerget 7Y rotary engine was used for this purpose. As things stand, it is unclear why a French engine was used for these tests. The Pfalz 1915 biplane, now powered by a 9-cylinder, 100 hp Oberursel U.I engine, was probably photographed during evaluation at the Flieger-Ersatz-Abteilung in Schleissheim.The different engine and presentation of the wing crosses indicate this may have been a second version of the airplane. |
