EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the sleek lines and powerful presence of a German Fokker E III fighter plane from the First World War. Produced by the Fokker Flugzeugwerke in Germany, the Fokker E III was a significant advancement in military aviation technology, featuring a 100 hp Oberursel engine and a distinctive Eindecker (monoplane) design. The plane's distinctive cross insignia, a symbol of the German military, is clearly visible on the wings. The Fokker E III first entered service with the German air force in 1915 and quickly gained a fearsome reputation among Allied pilots due to its agility and maneuverability. This particular aircraft was photographed by a member of the No.11 Wing of the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) during the conflict, which lasted from 1914 to 1918. The image offers a rare glimpse into the intense and dangerous world of aerial combat during this pivotal period in history. The horsepower of the Oberursel engine, a critical component of the Fokker E III's performance, is evident in the determination etched on the faces of the pilots who flew these formidable machines. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the courage and innovation that characterized the First World War's aerial battles, and the enduring allure of the early days of military aviation.
