"This is a Fokker Type B produced in 1915. Made by Fokker Aeropanblau GMBH; A two-seater either she was unarmed surveillance aircraft in 1915 or later also armed from 1916 as a fighter plane . The type designation is actually Fokker B / M.y . In the rear of the aircraft can be seen at the marked B The inscription 18 is for what purpose they were used .
