   This small experimental monoplane was built in the spring of 1916 to the plans of Dipl. Ing. Hergt. The twin spars of the ply-covered cantilever wings passed right through the fuselage, the pilot sitting between them. The type was not proceeded with, as the firm found their repair and training school work to be more profitable than aircraft manufacture. Engine, 80 h.p. Oberursel U O. Span, 10.0 m.
