Abstract
Kleinewillinghöfer classified in [7] Laguerre planes with respect to central automorphisms and obtained a multitude of types. For finite Laguerre planes many of these types are known to be empty. In this paper we investigate the Kleinewillinghöfer types of flat Laguerre planes with respect to the full automorphism groups of these planes and completely determine all possible types of flat Laguerre planes with respect to Laguerre translations.
