Taz:
I am airmailing to you today a enlarged segment copy of the photo from Alex Imrie's "GERMAN FIGHTER UNITS JUNE 1917-1918, page 12. The copy clearly shows the upper wing cross field to be white and the wing is in streaked camouflage. IT IS NOT PAINTED RED as claimed by Alex Imrie.
I would appreciate it if you would post the enlarged photo on this Thread.
There were a series of photos taken at LeChelle Airfield on 26 March 1918, according to the caption on page 13. In Peter Grosz's DR.I photo collection there were several photos taken on this of the flight line. On some later date another series of photos were taken at LeChelle Airfield on what appears to be an overcast day (No shadows) of the flight line, at this point in time the all red DR.I has the crosses modified to the balken cross form.
The two events aid in defining time. Jage.Nr.I was at LeChelle from 26 March to 11 April 1918.
Blue skies,
Dan
