Title: Spandau MG's on SSW D-III
Post by: skeeterbuck on August 25, 2015, 12:49:22 AM

Simple enough did the SSW D-III have the Spandau's with extended handle?

I can't locate any clear pics to tell with any certainty.  :-\

Thanks,
Chuck

No long cocking handles in any picture I could find. Some fairly clear detail shots in WS DF 29 SSW D.III -D.IV.  Pages 30- 31 have good photos of the D.III cockpit that clearly show the early short handle style on both MGs.
