This skin depicts the camo and markings on a black Albatros D.Va flown by Lt Hans Udet, then JAFU, Jasta 37, operating out of Wynghene Aerodrome in early 1918. Udet flew many aircraft, and this appears to be one of at least three D.Va types he used at Jasta 37. I relied most heavily on an excellent profile by R.N. Pearson as well as other material.

The markings on the upper and lower wings are provisional, as they were made without the benefit of any photos or drawings. I relied instead on a careful description provided by Barkhorn1x. The result you see is entirely my own, and my time machine is no longer operational. This is an interpretation, a well-grounded interpretation, but certainly a mix of accuracy and flaws.

 

Have fun with it. I’d appreciate any comments, especially with links to source material.

 

Just drop the folder in your AlbatrosD5a folder and select Hans Udet Shawartz in the loadout screen. The name reads Hans Udet Schwartz because this is the black bird (Schwarz is German for black). There may be other Hans Udet D.Va J 37 skins.

 

There is no need to edit the AlbD5a ini.
