All the templates finally have been uploaded in their correct 2048 x 2048 format to both Air War Fare and Cliffs of Dover, where they are grouped under "aelius."

Aside from the higher resolution, some minor changes have been made, which are described below.



Several maddenly elusive bits of color splintering that originally had defied discovery have been corrected.









The yellow identification band introduced a splash of color on the spinners and, although not visible in flight, has been redrawn.



The curious replacement tail, which retained its original camouflage scheme, is what made this plane so interesting. But it later was repainted and now is shown completely in black.



Skinned to demonstrate the difficulty in distinguishing between tones in a black-and-white photograph, the Staffel letter now is red instead of gray.





The unit code has been made smaller and a more mottled camouflage scheme applied to better correspond to the historical antecedent.
