Some notes on the Dutch used Dornier Do24K1/2's
X1 to X29 : All Do24K1 models build by Dornier. X1 to X12 all had the early middle Alkan turret , from X13 the airplanes were equiped with the Laffette AB15 ball turret and the Hispano Suiza HS404 20mm rapidfire cannon.
X30 to X-36 , Licence build Do24K1 , airplane's contructed by Avioland and the Schelde.
X-37 - The single build Do24K2 , the other airplanes were completed during the German occupation and served with the Seenottdienst as Do24N (actually Do24K2)
Colours used by the dutch naval airservice :
The early color were light grey abaove the waterline and below the waterline milk white. Someweri in 1940/41 the new dark scheme was aplied.
Insignia :
Before ww2 the dorniers all carried the dutch roundels and red/white/blue rudders (outside only). the Organge circle in the roundel is always 1/5th the diameter of the roundel. The roundels on the hull had a diameter of 85cm and on the wing 150cm. In December 1938 the red/white/blue rudders were discontinued so this was never used in its operational period. From Oktober 1939 the roundels were replaced by orange triangle's with black edge. Also the rudders were given the orange color and black edge. ( both inside and outside) The black edge is always 10cm wide regardless off the triagle size. In April 1941 the big trianlge's on the hull were replaced by smaller ones and the triangles on the top of the wings were left out. From March 1942 the triangles were replaced by large dutch flags.
