I'm not sure about this because in the few pictures I've seen of the AH
EIII's, there don't appear to have any of the factory markings or stencils,
except for the AH Flik number. This would make sense if they were painted
after they got into AH hands. But I'm no expert on Austro-Hungarian stuff.
Anybody know what that new, expensive(!) book on AH a/c has to say? Did
Fokker ever license production out like the very few DVII's made at MAG and
others.

BTW, what about the datafile's assertion that the Turkish EIII were painted a
brown color? Would this have made effective camoflague in the Middle Eastern
theaters?
