    No Wikipedia article. German pilot apparently, he piloted the Rohrbach Ro II in 1923 (a seaplane, so not the plane in the picture)
  • swanq said:
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_endurance_record indicates that Landmann held the world record for length of flight very briefly, from June 29, 1914 until July 11, 1914

    What a great project, thank you very much!
  • LWyman said:
    Landmann is posing with an early Albatros, probably a B.I or B.II. Here's a B.I from San Diego Air & Space Museum Archives and a photo of a B.II at the Heeresgeschichtliches Museum, Vienna, by flickr member jens.lilienthal I think it's probably a version of the B.I, as the picture shows three sets of struts and the B.II had two sets per side. Engines varied in both types.

    The airplane appears to be an Albatros B.II.

    Yes, I think so: www.muzeumlotnictwa.pl/zbiory_sz.php?ido=4&w=a en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albatros_B.II
  • TVL1970 said:
    I believe this is actually an Albatros B.I aircraft, based on the three-bay wing (note the three sets of struts on the starboard wing). Adding to any further potential confusion regarding the Albatros B.I and the B.II, is the fact that several B.I aircraft had their wings rebuilt into a two-bay configuration (like that of the subsequent B.II).
