German He111 in spurious french marking
During the spring 1941, the Germans painted two He 111 with spurious french marking :
- an He 111G-2 = transport plane with a metal nose (D-ADBX) with was hastly converted in "F-ADBX". The spurious french markings where large tricolored bands on the wings and the tail.
- an He 111 with glased nose and upper and lower turrets still iln position. The plane was repainted with 6 positions french cocardes and a small tricolored flag on the rudder.
These two planes, with german crews, where used to transport from Rhodos to Syria germans officials (negotiations prior of the use of french airfields for refuelling the small number of germans planes which where sent to help the Irakians who where trying to liberate their country).
Please forgive my very basic english.
