(excerpt from) The Air Force in East- and West-Prussia http://rapidttp.com/milhist/vol083jm.html
The German air force, proper name: Koeniglich Preussische
Fliegertruppe, Royal Prussian Flying Corps, was represented by a
Flieger-Bataillon No.2, with stations in Koenigsberg (East
Prussia), and Posen and Graudenz (West Prussia). The commander
was Major Kuckein, his adjutant 2nd Lieutenant Alfred Mahncke.
The battalion was formed on 1.10.1913 and had an authorized
strength of 12 officers and 398 other ranks.
During the following months, until the outbreak of WW I, the unit
increased in number and eventually consisted of sections Nos 14,
17 and 29, as well as a few fortress flight squadrons, altogether
around twenty aircraft, too few to cover the vast terrain
properly.
