A few days ago I mentioned I was working on the early version of the Fokker D.21, that is, the way it looked after delivery in 1938. Because there are photographs of this delivery, the outlook of the pilot is also known. The pilots wore a white flying cap and probably also glasses. I tried to reproduce this, and this is the result. And: the glasses of the pilot are true transparent glass.
And here's an overview of the early version. Biggest differences: no gunsight, no radio (antenna) and red-white-blue-orange markings instead of the orange triangles. The plane is sitting at the platform of Teuge Airport (EHTE) in The Netherlands. Following on this picture is a series of screenies of a flight from Teuge, which I posted on the various forums as well.
