German and Austro-Hungarian Aircraft Manufacturers

Much has been written about the British aircraft of the First World War, but little has surfaced about the aircraft of the Axis powers, Germany and Austria. Here, Terry C. Treadwell tells the story of the aircraft from companies such as Fokker, builder of the famous triplane, as flown by Baron von Richthofen's Flying Circus, AEG, Albatros, Junkers and Hansa.

From reconnaissance aircraft to state-of-the-art bombers that could reach London, this is the definitive guide to aircraft of the Axis powers during the First World War. The aircraft are explained in detail and a history of each company is provided, making this an excellent source book for aircraft enthusiasts, model makers and those interested in the air war over the trenches of France and Belgium, as well as further afield in the Italian campaign.

Alfons Pützer is one of the co-founders of post-war aircraft construction in West Germany. In a remarkable way, Alfons Pützer managed to establish his private aircraft company in the difficult years of rebuilding the German aviation industry, even without the financial backing of a larger corporation.

Even at a time when the construction of motor aircraft was still prohibited by the Allies in the young Federal Republic, the first gliders were built in the Pützer company in Bonn, which were already prepared for later motorization.
Alfons Pützer presented his first motor aircraft, the "Moraa", just a few days after the lifting of the aircraft construction ban in 1955. Alfons Pützer became famous with his "Elster", which was mass-produced in Bonn from 1958.

August 3 2018 marked the 100th anniversary of Alfons Pützer's birthday. To mark this occasion, the authors have dedicated this volume to the life and work of Alfons Pützer, as well as the history of his Pützer aircraft construction company in Bonn and Sportavia-Pützer GmbH & Co KG, which he co-founded in the Eifel region of Germany, on the Dahlemer Binz.
