The '''Lohner E''' was a [[reconnaissance]] [[flying boat]] built in Austria-Hungary during [[World War I]].<ref name="Jane's">Taylor 1989, p. 611.</ref><ref name="WAIF">''World Aircraft Information Files''. London: Bright Star Publishing, pp. File 900 Sheet 20.</ref> The "E" stood for Igo Etrich, one of the Lohner engineers.<ref name=dopp/> It was a conventional design for its day with [[biplane]] wings that featured slight sweepback, and an engine mounted pusher-fashion in the interplane gap.<ref name="WAIF" /> Its crew of two was seated in an open cockpit.

Around 40 examples were built before production shifted to the more powerful [[Lohner L|L]].<ref name="Jane's" /><ref name="WAIF" />
