Hi Langdon,

I think I get it now, the first photo is 477/17 and I am thinking this proves the "all red" Dr.I with the "^" blemish is now agreed to be 425/17?

As Taz, Dan-San, and CWatson stated this photo of 477/17 was taken at the same time as the "^" blemish aircraft being all red as it was seen in the background?

Langdon,

The second photo is the photo Carisella/Leaman had identified as 425/17. It is clearly Hemer's "wavy line" Dr.I, (Leaman identifies as 595/17), just at an earlier point in time. The same rectangular access panel is visible in different shots.

Taz,

I would like to see a scan of this photo where you can see both 477/17 and 425/17 in the same image! Taz.... Even if you can only see the top wing and it is taken at a later date. "Enquiring minds want to know."

Best,
Dave W.
