Re: Hs 123 camouflage diagram

I'm not the one claiming evidence. I've no private (or otherwise) stock of photos of the type. I'm just pointing out that this suggestion has been proven wrong in the past, almost without exception. Such exceptions have been a limited number of aircraft, in particular circumstances, rather than the entire service stock of the type. If the Hs123 fleet was repainted in this monochrome style it would be unique in Luftwaffe history, something which might be thought to require at least a little explanation rather than just being nodded through?

Hi,
not unique, I think to the Go145's and Ar66's from Störkampfstaffeln and later Nachtschlachtgruppen, almost all in 70 or 71

Also the Ju52 which was discussed here. A single dark color top and bottom.

Then there are the all light blue Do 217 and 17 (appears monochrome).
