Air Field Benz Bi Plane Cylinder Reconnaissance Seater War Time Ww 1


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of aviation during the First World War, with a German DFW CV two-seater biplane taking off from a muddy airfield. The DFW CV, manufactured by the Deutsche Flugzeug- und Motorenwerke AG (German Aircraft and Engine Works) between 1916 and 1918, was a reconnaissance biplane primarily used for gathering intelligence behind enemy lines. Powered by a Benz BZ4 six-cylinder engine, this aircraft was a formidable addition to the German air fleet. The Benz engine, with its distinctive cross-shaped emblem, could produce an impressive 110 horsepower, enabling the CV to reach a top speed of 110 mph. The open-cockpit biplane, with its large wings and wooden structure, sits on the damp ground, ready for takeoff. The crew, clad in leather helmets and goggles, are poised to embark on their mission. The plane's cargo bay, visible in the rear, is empty in this instance, but it could carry additional fuel or supplies for longer reconnaissance flights. This photograph offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of air warfare during the Great War. The rough terrain, the muddy field, and the ominous clouds in the background underscore the challenging conditions under which these pilots operated. Despite the risks, they bravely took to the skies, providing invaluable intelligence to their commanders and contributing to the outcome of the war.
