The AEG Wagner Eule, the Owl, was a German two-seat reconnaissance aircraft built in 1914 by AEG and designed by an engineer named Wagner. It was a single-engined mid-wing monoplane with a welded steel-tube fuselage covered in fabric and tapered oak wings with a scalloped, bat-like trailing edge. The first prototype used a Gnome rotary engine and was burned in a fire during testing. The second flew a few short hops before the design was abandoned, but its welded fuselage carried forward into AEG B, C and J types. The surviving prototype is displayed unrestored at the Kraków aviation museum.
