White spiral on black, or black green, painted spinner
Often, a white spiral can be observed on the black, or black green, painted spinner of various German and Axis allied warplanes. Based on Luftwaffe regulation, this distinctive Axis recognition marking was introduced on warplanes subordinated to Luftflotte 4 fighting on the Eastern Front sometimes in late July 1944.
Can someone point out to the actual date this marking had to be introduced and the document that prescribed it? Was it valid only to warplanes subordinated to Luftflotte 4? Thanks, in advance.
