This small experimental fighter biplane designed by Hermann Dorner, it was designed for high speed in 1915, it went about 180km fast for that time but the plane crashed on landing because of poor foward visibility and the narrow landing gear (because of the small landing gears it will bounce when its about take off, let it fly for awhile and it should be stable)
