I'm thinking of modelling one of the early D.VIIs, 227/18 to 229/18 and have a question concerning the style of exhaust used.
As I understand it, the prototype Fokker V.11 was modified to become one of the above machines.
In Datafile 9, page 3 is a right side pic of V.11/II with triplane style tail, streaked camouflage, etc. It's exhaust pipe exits the cheek piece towards the top rear of the panel - a different location than the standard early Fokker built machines.
Now, on page 4 is a left side pic of one of the three early D.VIIs, with new tail, streaked camo and crosses. During the modifications was the exhaust changed to the top centre of the cheek panel?
The best answer would be a pic of the right side of this machine. Does one exist?
Any info would be appreciated.
