Albemarle details wanted

[ChristianK]

Gentlemen,

is there any source for details (close-ups, drawings) of the Armstrong-Whitworth Albemarle, either on the web or printed? I've searched for some time and i've found nothing except for some sporadic photographs..

And could you please tell me what do you think about the colors on this soviet plane?

Is it a very very faded Dark Earth/Dark Green RAF scheme or some sort of field applied soviet camouflage?

Thanks in advance,
Christian

As you can see the placing of the original RAF roundel and fin flashes, where they have been painted over, I'd say that was faded DG/DE. It may be that the Soviet film is insensitive, rather than just fading.

Christian,

Perhaps this is a start? See http://www.airpages.ru/img/us/aw41.jpg

DRAWINGS WERE A CENTRE SPREAD IN THE NEWSPAPER TYPE bi-weekly "AVIATION NEWS" SOME YEARS AGO.
I remember there was the Albemarle because I made a model from it.
Perhaps someone has a copy.

This would be great. No other article is known?
