Aleksandrov writes about more then twenty different German and Austrian sea planes abandoned in Sevastopol and Odessa. In 1919-1920 the Crimea several times passed from one hands to another. So some planes served in White aviation and others in Red aviation. Sometimes the pilots also continued the service in new army. There were the pilots who had served step by step in Ukranian, Denikin's and Red armies.
That explains it. I read some first hand accounts of that area during that period. Very chaotic on a slow day. I'm beginning to think that the list of WWI planes that didn't fly in the RCW is the shorter list ;-)
