[WWI] <Knock - Knock>

[Crawford Neil]

Looking around for arguments to crush Shane with, I found this:

"Civil aviators who enlisted with their own machines supplemented the
four original squadrons of the Belgian Air Arm. A fifth squadron was so
created with a mix of Deperdussin monocoques, Bleriot XI's and a Morane
H. Amongst the volunteers who joined the Army Air component there were
many pre-war celebrities as Crombez, Tyck, Olieslagers with his brothers
and De Caters."

Does anyone know more about this? Which Dep monocoques were they? The
fighting was 
around the river Meuse, were floatplanes used?
