Overview

The Lohner E was a reconnaissance flying boat developed in Austria-Hungary during the First World War. The designation "E" honored Igo Etrich, one of the engineers at Lohner responsible for its design. This aircraft featured a typical configuration for its era, incorporating biplane wings with a slight rearward sweep and an engine arranged in a pusher layout positioned between the wings. The two-person crew operated from an open cockpit.

Approximately 40 units of this model were produced before manufacturing transitioned to the more powerful Lohner L variant.
