Bertl,
    Absolutely fascinating, thanks so much for posting it. I'll be viewing it again (more then once!) for sure.
Cheers,

Just view both films and really enjoyed them both.

I think that some of the written description that accompanies the file may be incorrect. It looks to me that the person they describe at Adlershof as Klein looks to be Ernst Udet. Also they describe the mechanics "oiling propellers" when they're priming the engine cylinders!

Thanks Bertl, thanks for the link. A wonderful resource and a very interesting film that I finally got to watch today!!

  The film really brings the men to life; clowning around, a little self-conscious in front of the camera, having a smoke.
 A very short take off run for the tripe! Thanks for the sharing.
