Seaplane Camouflage
Can someone more enlightened than me tell me the correct colours for pre-1938 seaplanes and those sent as part of the Condor Legion?
Also, when did the camo change to the 65/72/73 splinter scheme? many thanks Adam

Re: Seaplane Camouflage
It appears that between 1933 and 1935 Maritime aircraft were in the 02 color, then switched to the grayer 63. The 72/73 sheme was adopted in 1938 and slowly implemented in 1939. Repainting must have taken some time, as, if I rember correctly, some seaplanes used for rescue in the Battle of Britain still were in the 63 color.
