*** QUESTION regarding option 8 white 5 of Schusta 27b:(Aug 2019)
WNW has a new Hannover CL II kit and has also the same option.
Unfortunately your version(Pheon's) looks totally different. No white tail, different bird, different front, another serial choosen though you quote it as unknown. Does Rowan has any b/w photos which show his version? May be it was repainted later on?

Answer from Ray Rimmel of Albatros Productions Ltd: (Aug 2019)
- Pheon in all good faith based their reconstruction on the one photo available at the time-as in the DATAFILE. Since when, WNW have found more photos that clearly illustrate C.9276/17 with the white tailplane as depicted and presented in the reissue. The Crane motifs are different on the fuselage sides,not a mirror image as originally thought. I am confident that the markings shown on the new kit are correct ...

The final option on this
decal set owes its inclusion to the inspiration of the excellent Polish
modeller, Przemyslaw Litewka. He was also kind enough to provide a translation
of the aircraft’s history from Polish sources which forms the basis of the
notes on option 12. The full story of the evolution of Poland’s post-WWI air
arm is yet to be written in English – here’s hoping that somebody takes on the
task soon!
As usual, I wish to record my thanks to Ray Horwell of Fantasy Printshop for his customary printing excellence.
