    1. December 2024 Update is online Mitgliederbereich: More then 3000 flights at SFS List are now available; New details to staff and aircraft of SFS Flandern 2 (Ostende) are now available; New pictures of Lt.d.R.M.I. Otto Andersson und Fl.Mt. Karl Elsaesser; 1900 persons;
    2. I have all of them but there are quite a lot of PDF files. I gues 28 files.
    3. Never ever. Keep going. I own a picture album of Lt.d.R. Paul Köstlich member of LZ 86 with great pictures of the crew and airship. Thank you for showing this picture.
    4. Correct, Kleinschmitt was the commander on Z VI at outbreak of war. But Hptm. Masius got the Ehrenbecher for the Attack of Antwerpen on 24. Aug. 1914 as Wachoffizier on Z IX led by Hptm. Alfred Horn.
    5. The date indicates the beginning of the service. The first service does not have a date because it indicates that the service was at or before outbreak of war. on the last service it is often mentioned "bis Ende" (until the end) of war.
    6. I assume that the Duke of Braunschweig awarded medals to other members of the crew as well. Comander Masius received the Orden Heinrich des Löwen. Steuermann Schwarz might received the cross too.
    7. I would not touch the patina. The condition is fine for more then 100 years.
    8. This is an amaging group and extremly rare. In this completness I know only 2 more groups. This is the 14th known award of the Ehrenbecher für erfolgreiche Angriffe aus der Luft and the the 9th exisiting Ehrenbecher. Beside this 9 Ehrenbecher there are 2 bronce figures known that were awarded as a replacement for the Ehrenbecher. Correct me if I'm wrong. Herrmann Schulze served under Hauptmann Hans Masius on (Z VI), LZ 35, LZ 72, LZ 87 and LZ 107. Masius received the Ehrenbecher as well but for another achivement as an Wachoffizier on Z XI (Antwerpen on 24. Aug. 1914). I don't have him on the crew of Z VI but he obviously was on the crew. He started prewar service at the Luftschiffertruppe. He was part of the crew of Z VI before outbreak of war under Hans Masius. and later under Hauptmann Kleinschmidt.
    9. September 2024 Update New picture of Kpt.Lt. Karl von Gorrissen; New picture of SFS List; 1800 persons;
    10. August 2024 update New pictures of Olt.z.S. Hans Wedel and Fl.Mst.d.R. Bruno Fricke; New picture of SFS Flandern 1 Leserportal: New article (Anatomie eines Absturzes); 1750 persons;
    11. The biggest Stern von Brabant i ever seen. Possible the biggest ever. Thanks for sharing this. I would love to see this live 😀
    12. I would say that it doesn't need any written rules. In my understanding this is obvious. KR Alex
    13. It seems Stogieman is no longer interested on the answer to his question. I would not make more efforts. KR Alex
    14. It is the IC2 with an cross device on it. Usually seen on saxon ribbon bars. KR Alex
