The markings for Jasta 36 fokker Triplanes in the summer (July)of 1918 was:
Jastaführer Harry von Bülow-bothkamp: white engine hood, all struts and wheel covers. The last two rib bays on all three wings. Dark blue fuselage, and leading of all three wings between the white tips. Tailplane divide dark blue and white and elevators dak blue. The remaining wing areas are in streaked camougflage sky blue>turquoise undersides. Rudder is white with the black latin crosses edge to edge.
Jasta 36 markings:
The Jasta 36 markings were the dark blue fuselage and engine cowl, wheel covers, all struts and the tailplane divided equally dark blue and white with white elevators, the 8:1 Latin wing cross (top and bottom) were painted over and moved to the extreme wing tip, the horizontal arm terminating at the wing tip edge. One had dark blue and white \ stripes at about 45° on the ailerons as a personal marking.
Blue skies,
Dan-San
