AIRCRAFT COLOURS AND MARKINGS OF THE FIRST WORLD WAR ERA

Hannover CL.II/III


The finish on the Hannover was interesting in that it first had large polygons painted on the fuselage. They decreased in size as they approached the tail and were then sprayed with a thin coat of blue allowing the previously applied polygons to show through.
The CL.II used LIGHT five colour lozenge on the upper surfaces, and CDL on the lower surfaces. The CL.III had dark four colour lozenge on upper and light four-colour lozenge on the lower surfaces
