From Dave Watts

". . .Here is part I of my posting of McCook aircraft;

I need some help on this. *There was a list made up of all the Fokker D.VII types listed on the US inventory for 1919. *This list is broken down into Fokker built, OAW built, and Albatros built D.VII airframes. *I have lost my Albatros built list. *To convince someone to post the list, I'll post the Fokker built and OAW built lists. *There were a total of 142 D.VII aircraft on the list; 61 Fokker built, 48 OAW, and 33 Albatros.

I would very much appreciate someone posting the Albatros list......Dan-San?

Here's list nr.1;

Opel motor numbers have serial numbers in the 12000 range.

The "Mana IIIa" was a BMW built under license by M.A.N. Augsburg.

I'm going to do a second posting for the OAW D.VII's.

The reason we don't have all of the motor numbers is because with Fokker built D.VIIs we have the Armee acceptance sheets which list what motor was installed in which Fokker D.VII. We don't have that benefit with OAW nor Albatros built D.VIIs.

As I mentioned, I'm missing my Alb. built D.VII list. We can deduce from these other lists 61 (Fok. built) + 48 (OAW built) = 109. 142 - 109 = 33 Albatros built D.VIIs.

If anyone has the list please share it.

Thanks and best wishes,
Dave W.

You can see some problems with the list, such as "Roland D-V" instead of D.VIa or D.VIb, . . .As well as double numbering, etc.
