Just wondering, Franek, but have you ever shot B&W film with different filters?


All I see is light reflecting off the area where the kill marking stickers are.
There are documented photos of Gabreskis Thunderbolt from around July 6th 1944 showing 28 kill markings in place and the upper surface invasion stripes removed.
The area where the ground crew members names were recorded also shows up as a shiny rectangular reflection on many photos.

Also,,yet again,,the photos of HV-A on the ground after belly landing show clearly 28 kill markings.

Im getting bored now.
