Nice find!
Very Interesting!
Does anyone know what the "unknown" German aircraft are? I suspect a few are confusions with known aircraft. However, I am not familiar enough with the looks of some Pfalz, Halberstadt and SS's. '

I'm not able to identify them, I'm sorry.
Perhaps they were new model in 1917 So, a way to identify is to study the silhouettes of the recent german airplanes of that period.

The one on the right (of the second Unknown) could be a Siemens-Schuckert D3. The one on the left looks Albatrossy, but the tailplane is too slender for anything I've seen; maybe a later C model? The first unknown lokos like the right hand on on the second sheet, different witness?

Fantastic! Thanks for finding this gem.
That's neat. Thanks. It's a good example of the style of a document from that era, which could be copied for log books or other handouts.
Thanks! But I think that all the merit goes to the person who decided to publish such a rarity on the Internet This type of documents are seen only behind the windows of the museum.
Thanks Attilio, more interesting things to check out!!!
Very cool. I could see this being useful in a campaign game somehow.
As for the "Unknowns", given the stated date of publication none of them can be the Siemens-Schukert D.III, but I agree it does resemble one, so this could possibly have been someone caught a glimpse of one of the Siemens-Schukert D.II prototypes... but then again, those are mid-1917 so it cant' be that either.
