In the article "Moulton Planes" (10), I studied F. R. Moulton's construction over any field containing a multiplicative subgroup of index 2. In "Collineations of Affine Moulton Planes" (11), I determined the collineations between two arbitrary affine Moulton planes.

The purpose now is to describe the collineations between two projective Moulton planes. Since the affine collineations are known from (11), we are concerned with collineations mapping ideal lines onto ordinary lines. Notations and conventions of (10) and (11) are retained.
