    You can read a little more about Private Hines in the online version of an exhibiton we did a few years ago called Fifty Australians. He became quite famous because of this photo, which was first published in late 1917.

    Although a German bomber, this cannot be qualified as a 'giant' bombers produced in Germany during WW1. The picture shows an A.E.G. G.IV twin-engined bomber.

    The AEG G.IV was numbered G 588/17 and is seen in Amiens, soon after it was brought down on May 16th 1918. See Windsock Datafile 51 for more photos of this particular aircraft. Other AEG G.IV
