Stropp

I'm sure I'm going to appear foolish here (So what else is new?). However, the Stropp DVa was covered in lozinge fabric by the Smithsonian restorers as this was the type fabric the airplane had on it from way back. Is this camo an earlier covering and if so why would the airplane have been recovered in lozinge? I'd almost think the airplane came form the factory with the lozinge fabric. Something tells me I'm going to hear some history.

Wonderful art work iart7!!
