Its look like the larger one is Gotha WD 14 and behind it could be Friedrichshafen FF.33.  Problem is the small fighter, it could be Euler fighter. Not 100% sure...

Your image of the Gotha WD 14 looks like it has a twin tail  :-think

The smaller one could be a Euler DI or DII

mfg495,

  I love that first Euler photo.  The way that the light shows the structure of the wing is amazing.  It reminds me of my old balsa/tissue Guillow Nieuport 11 kit.
