This aircraft was photographed in winter 1941/42. Its characteristics
are:
-
early type without slats;
-
overall non-uniform white or very light grey;
-
fuselage star aligned with upper fuselage profile and probably with black
outline;
-
equipped with radio;
-
there is a metal stripe to cover the gap behind the spinner;
-
probably no any code painted.
The photo shows a light shade over the spinner, probably a reflex
in the camera objective. Note the strongly misted rear trasparent, probably
difficult to access for internal cleaning.
