Taz,

The thin dark line is a paint line to cover the demarcation between the upper and lower surface schemes. There is no seam at this point as one piece of fabric is used to cover the wing (chord-wise) and the join is made along the trailing edge, at least this is the way it was done on the V.4.

As far as ACER goes, I think some evidence is warranted before I take any notice of his observations, if he has the proof as you expect he might then it will be an easy matter for him, and we still have the caption from the original album stating it was Richthofen's aircraft which must carry more weight than an unsubstantiated comment from a person hiding behind a pseudonym.
