10.01.2022 Friends, Here is a photo of the very first Albatros fighter, the D. I. The big differences between it and the D.II is the very high placement of the top wing, and the inward lean of the fuselage struts. Both of these design errors were corrected with the D.II that Boelcke flew. Richthofen and several other of Boelcke's squadron, Jasta II, flew the D.I. Good hunting.
