J.Herris Friedrichshafen Aircraft of WWI (A Centennial Perspective on Great War Airplanes 21)

Friedrichshafen FF8

   The FF7 design was not built and with their next design, the FF8, Friedrichshafen returned to a floatplane of tractor monoplane configuration. The first flight of the FF8 was in June 1913; like the earlier FF4 it used a 65 hp, four-cylinder Argus for power. Wing warping was used for roll control, but the wing did not use the Taube planform, which probably improved its performance compared to the FF4. Again only one aircraft was built.
