Jasta 2 Albatros D.I/D.II Planform Camouflage

Hello.

I would appreciate any information regarding the planform camouflage used by Jasta 2's Albatros D.Is and D.IIs, autumn 1916. In the past Dan-San provided info for Boelcke and MvR; what about the rest? The leading edges of Höhne's D.I seem similar to to MvR's, but I am not yet learned enough to know for sure.

Also, are any of these valid? http://www.internetmodeler.com/2005/...a_AlbDI-02.jpg

Thank you very much for any input.

Dan San Abbott's researchinto the camouflage of the Albatros camouflage is impeccable. The bottom two schemes are highly...suspect and should not be relied on.

I you check "Article and Reviews"you will find the ""Albatros D,I and D.II Camouflage Schemes".
The articles illusrates the colors and variation of the Albatros Schemes. Each illustrates a particular by serial number. You may find what you are looking for.

The schemes are basicly the same you will find for the Roden D.I 1/72. So be just carfull and check references. I don't think even the Buettner markings are right.
