Summary

Description
English: An early summer 1915 photo of Kurt Wintgens' Fokker M.5K/MG "E.5/15" Fokker Eindecker, that was the aircraft used by him on July 1, 1915 in the very first successful aerial engagement which involved a synchronized machine-gun-armed aircraft.
Photo came from the Peter M Grosz collection, and had to have been originally taken before the end of July 1915, as the appearance of the fuselage of this individual aircraft after that date changed when Wintgens was assigned to a different unit, that used distinctive markings on its fuselage, that are not shown in this photo.
Deutsch: Ein Foto vom Frühsommer 1915 von Kurt Wintgens „Fokker M.5K/MG“ bzw. „E.5/15“. Der Fokker Eindecker, mit dem er am 1. Juli 1915 den allerersten erfolgreichen Lufteinsatz, der mit einem synchronisierten Maschinengewehr ausgerüstet war, absolvierte.
Das Foto stammt aus der Sammlung von Peter M. Grosz und muss ursprünglich vor Ende Juli 1915 aufgenommen worden sein, da sich das Aussehen des Rumpfes dieses einzelnen Flugzeugs nach diesem Datum änderte, als Wintgens einer anderen Einheit zugeteilt wurde, die besondere Markierungen auf ihrem Rumpf verwendete, die auf diesem Foto nicht zu sehen sind.
Date before 31 July 1915
