M.Dusing German & Austro-Hungarian Aero Engines of WWI. Vol.2 (A Centennial Perspective on Great War Airplanes 65)
Flugzeugbau Emil Freytag, Zwickau/ Saxonia
Emil Freytag founded his aircraft manufacturing company in 1912 and moved into one of the aircraft hangars of the Wurttemberg Flying Club near the Cannstatter Wasen in Unterturkheim near Stuttgart. It is known that at least five "Baumann-Freytag" aircraft were built there, although they were not equipped with their own engines.

Форум - Breguet's Aircraft Challenge /WWW/
Alexander Baumann (1875-1928) built the challenge machine with the support of the manufacturer Ernst Emil Freytag in 1912/13. Contrary to Bauman's plans, structural changes were made to the aircraft, so that a test flight ended with the crash and death of the test pilot. For the first time, Baumann used a self-inflating wing profile similar to that of today's paragliders on this aircraft. After the outbreak of the First World War, Baumann constructed functioning giant aircraft. By the end of the war, 34 of these aircraft had been built, including 18 Zeppelin-Staaken R VI. In 1925 he moved to Mitsubishi in Japan as chief designer. His family returned to Stuttgart in mid-1927. He himself followed at the end of the year, but found his wife with leukemia. About two months after her rapid death, he died on March 23, 1928 of nicotine poisoning.
