| Alberto Rizzi, e-mail, 23.06.2017 00:47 The CL III had a 160 HP Mercedes D III engine; the CL IIIa (like the former CL II) had the 180 HP Argus engine. reply | | Barry, 26.08.2016 14:47 Designed by Hermann Dorner, the CL III replaced the earlier CL II and was unusual in that it had a biplane tail which was not generally found on smaller aircraft such as this. However,the tail offered a better field of fire to the observer. Some 617 were produced from 1916 onwards . reply | | Brian Johnston, e-mail, 07.06.2012 14:57 The picture definitely shows an in-line ,rather than radial engine. reply | | goodman, 20.06.2011 04:53 This picture is of the CLIIIa mistakenly credited to Cpt. Eddie Rickenbacker I believe. reply | |
| | David, e-mail, 10.08.2009 09:43 Not sure about the engine description. I believe it was an in line engine of either 160 or 180 hp. This picture is of the CLIIIa mistakenly credited to Cpt. Eddie Rickenbacker I believe. reply | | Lester, e-mail, 08.09.2008 00:29 Interesting picture, looks like it could have used some more horizontal stabilizer surface. reply |
