Ungarische Lloyd Flugzeug und Motorenfabrik AG
This firm was known in Hungary as the Magyar Lloyd Repülőgép- és Mótorgyár-Részvénytársaság (Hungarian Lloyd Aerospace and Motor factory-Joint Stock Company, Magyar Lloyd Aircraft- and Motor Factory-Shareholder Company, Public Limited Company, Limited Company, Joint Stock Company).
Formed by designer Obit Bier as branch of Deutsche Flugzeug-Werke (DFW). We infer it was a subsidiary.
Wizina and von Melczer, designers, 1914-1917. This "von Melczer" is quite conceivably the Tibor Melczer of Patent HU-1913-63841.
Originally built DFW types under license; then built Bier-designed biplane; subsequently built Hansa-Brandenburgische types. In 1914-1916 built several hundred original reconnaissance biplanes designed by Wizina and von Melczer, who also produced fighter biplanes and triplanes in 1917.
Our patent data has the firm earlier filing from Aszód, Hungary.[1][2] The data has him later filing from Budapest.[3][4]
