Re: Black-painted Heinkels!
I've seen a few photos of German aircraft with a good bit of black on the fuselage sides. I'm not certain but I believe they were He 111's. The OSS supposedly flew a few black bombers but the one photo I've seen shows a B 24 with mostly visible markings.
He 111, D-AHAO is illustrated with a small black area near the lower front quarter in the book KG 200 by Geoffrey Thomas and Barry Ketley, along with D-ADAG, which is shown with temporary black painted over the upper surfaces. The source for each illustration is indicated to be photos.
Regards,
Ed
