To be honest,in early 5 pictures,I don't know if all of them are from his creation or not.

- For the first picture, the caption says, that it is not known, if this aircraft actually
was designed and constructed by Franz Xaver Mehr, or if he just assisted during
construction. If it actually flew, is unclear, too.
- For the second picture no mention of the shown aircraft at all is made.
- The third picture shows a glider, built nearby Friedrichshafen/Löwenthal, here, too,
it's not known, if it was finished and flown
- The fourth picture shows the Glider "Manzell"
