Lohner Marineflieger III / Seeflugzeug Nr.3

The third aeroplane of the Austrian navy, a “Pfeilflieger” biplane with a 120 hp Daimler Engine. Lohner was asked to develop a biplane for the Austro-hungarian navy in 1911 which was finished in March 1912 with a temporary undercarriage to be able to test on the land. Typical of the design was the high mounted propeller – driven by a chain – and the big wings (unequal span, 4 struts at a side).
