Re: American aircraft photos 8 - 12
Army-Navy Bulletins and their Inspectorates were primarily concerned with colour standards and specified detail markings like data panels, as long as serials were correct colours and sizes (but even these varied occasionally like red on some C-47s) it seems the actual presentation was left to the factory, in this case Curtiss St. Louis (Lambert Field).
The blocks concerned were (A-25)---3 blocks from 41-18774 to 41-18873, and AT-9s in blocks 41-11939 to 41-12279 / 41-5745 to 41-5894 / 42-56853 to 42-57152, so some were Fiscal Year 1942. The "dots" were no doubt a factory peculiarity. Regards Nick Last edited by Buckeye30; 7th November 2022 at 23:07. Reason: added year

Re: American aircraft photos 8 - 12
No opinion with regard to the dot, but from photos of AT-9/AT-9A later in their career, no dot is visible,
so must have been redone at some stage. Earliest dated photo is in 1943. Cheers Stig
