Румплер B-I / RUMPLER B-I
Доктор Румплер, владелец и главный конструктор фирмы Эдмунд Румплер Флюгцойгверк, спроектировал в 1914 году двухместный многоцелевой биплан смешанной конструкции с преобладанием древесины, использовав для него фюзеляж моноплана "Румплер-Таубе".
Самолет с заводским обозначением 4A оказался весьма удачным. Его приняли на вооружение немецких ВВС под индексом В-I и запустили в серию на фирмах Румплер и Пфальц. Всего построено 198 экземпляров машины, которые применялись в 1914-1915 годах на западном и восточном фронтах.

M.Dusing - German Aviation Industry in WWI. Volume 2 /Centennial Perspective/ (85)
Rumpler B.I (Rumpler 4A) (1914)
The Rumpler biplane on which Herr Basser beat the world's duration record at Johannisthal on June 24th last, with a flight of 18 hrs. 12 mins. duration. The nose of the fuselage round the 100 hjp. Mercedes engine is covered with aluminium, whilst the top of the body is covered with three-ply wood. The rear portion of the fuselage is totally covered in with fabric. Provision has been made for quick erecting and dismantling of the wings, which are separated by 12 steel tube struts of streamline section. The chassis is exactly similar to that of the Rumpler monoplanes, thus allowing of interchange of spare parts. -

This aircraft may be the Rumpler B.I prototype. Here is Sanke card 260. The B.I was a reliable replacement for the obsolete Taube and had good flying qualities, making it suitable for training use as well as operational reconnaissance missions.

Jane's All The World Aircraft 1919 /Jane's/
Early form of Rumpler B.I type military biplane, which just before the war broke various distance and duration records, including an 18 hours non-stop flight by Herr Basser, and a flight from Berlin to Constantinople, stopping only at Vienna, Sofia and Bucharest. Herr Basser is seen in the pilot's seat above.

Rumpler B.I 477/14 (02.28) was transferred to the LFT from Flieger Abteilung 30 at the Front. Still in its original German markings, it was flown later as a trainer in Wiener-Neustadt.

Rumpler B.I B.483/14 carries national insignia on both sides of all four wings. A 100 hp Mercedes D.I provided the power. Designed and placed into production in 1914, the Rumpler B.I was a good aircraft for its time. (Aeronaut)

This Rumpler B.I 484/14 (02.26) was operational with Flik 1 with the German insignia still intact. It would be repainted when it came in for repair.

Журнал - Flight за 1917 г.
An interesting photograph of the landing of an enemy machine with pilot badly injured and the observer killed. Our contemporary, La Guerrv Aerienne, states in regard to the above that on January 10th, 1915, near Villers-Bocage, Sub - Lieut. Eugene Gilbert, the well-known aviator, brought down this Aviatik. The landing was quite normal, the motor having been stopped through a bullet smashing the radiator. When the French soldiers arrived to seize the machine, the observer, Lieut. von Falkenstein, was noticed to be sitting perfectly still, and it was soon realised that he was dead, whilst the pilot, Lieut. Keller, was completely hors de combat through being seriously wounded.

Rumpler B.I depicted in Sanke card 271. Aircraft recognition, always a problem for the infantry, was in its infancy and the aircraft is will decorated with German national insignia to identify it for the ground troops.

Rumpler B 1 (02.01, w/n 217) in which Feldwebel Franz Juhasz of Flik 5 suffered a minor landing mishap in early 1915. The tail markings, possibly applied at the Rumpler factory, were non-standard.

In training service a number of B.I biplanes were retro-fitted with an aerodynamically-balanced rudder, shown here on Rumpler B.I 02.02. The marking on the tailplane is unusual.
