Fernando indicates that it was in the summer of 1941 that the 74/75/76 camouflage first began to appear, with the directive coming out in November 1941.

Steve, thanks also to you. If Messerschmitt started using the 74/75/76 scheme in the summer of 41, do you think they would have overpainted previous factory schemes? Unless I'm wrong, production of the D and E variants started replacing the C's in 1940. So wouldn't factory application for the C's have been 70/71 or maybe 02/71? I know there was experimentation with grey schemes during the Battle of Britain, so maybe it's possible they painted the 110 C's with 74/75 in the field. Any more thoughts on this? Will look on the camo threads some more.
