Albatros B.II (Early)
« on: January 13, 2017, 02:54:40 AM »
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I was wondering, the Wingnut Albatros B.II (Early), the markings that are provided, which of the five aircraft was in combat? Or were they all

Thanks,
James

Had had the same questions when I started to build mine. It seems to be a difficult question these early Albatrosses B II. I'd say at least some of them were in combat as the instructions say in the field the flying surfaces receeived a mottled camouflage. Training machines never were camouflaged. But that's no certain evidence for sure...
