Jasta 11 - Jagdgeschwader 1
Jasta 11 is the Jagdstaffel of Rittmeister Freiherr Manfred von Richthofen. As soon as January 1917, he became CO of this unit. Even after he was chosen to command Jagdgeschwader I (JG I) in June 1917, Jasta 11 stayed his principal squadron.
In January 1917 Kogenluft (Kommandierende- Generalität- Luft) issued the order that plane manufacturers shouldn't use red and brown tones for camouflage any more, because these were easily visible.
Was that the reason for von Richthofen to make red, the colour of his former cavalry unit, the colour of his squadron?
For some triplanes the military and/or factory number are not known. In these cases the identification number is specified by me such as par example (x11-3). This means, Jasta (fighter squadron) nr. 11 - nr 3.
