The fuselage appears to be painted in the same red-brown as the wings instead of being stained. Büttner was captured in this aircraft on November 16, 1916 by Capt Parker/Lt Harvey in an 8 Sqn BE2c

Typical upperwing patterns used on the Albatros D.II. That on the right was used by LVG-built D.IIs.

For additional profiles of the D.I/II, I recommend the Albatros D.I/II Datafile by Peter M Grosz, published by Albatros Productions Ltd, as well as Windsock 19/4
