This is the first time I have heard "AFT" fuselage mentioned reference this aircraft? GvW has indicated in both of his JG1 books, and I believe the Osprey Albatros Aces book, that the entire fuselage was "Plum Purple". It is also stated that in certain lighting conditions the aircraft looked to be red!
I agree with stephen in that I hope GvW chimes in!
