There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. Both views have the front on the left and the tail on the right of the page. The aircraft is shown in a flying position. The aircraft in the top of the page has the propeller on the left with one blade pointing up and one pointing down. The tip of the nose cone is yellow on the large print image. Up and right there is a notch in the fuselage, this is the air intake for the engine. Down from this is a rectangle which comprises six exhaust outlets. The bottom left of the front of the aircraft nose has a notch. This is the air intake for the radiator. To the right, down from the exhaust, are outlets for hot air to escape. In the top centre of the image is the cockpit cover. It has an aerial sticking up. Poking up and right is a gun the rear gunner would use if the aircraft was attacked. Down from the cockpit is the wingtip and mainly underside of the wing. The wings on this aircraft are angled down a short way as they leave the fuselage. They then kink upwards towards the tip of the wing, allowing the underside to be found. One of the two front wheels is shown down from the wing. The wheel is largely hidden by the streamlined wheel cover. A single large bomb is attached under the cockpit between the wheels. The leg of the wheel hides the central part of the bomb. Right of the wing the fuselage continues to the vertical tail fin on the right. In the centre of this section is a cross identifying the plane as German. In the centre of the fin is the end of one of the tail wings. Right of this is a vertical flap. This is one of the ailerons used to manoeuvre the aircraft when it is flying. Down from the fin is the single small tail wheel. In the plan view image in the bottom and middle of the page the fuselage goes from left to right in the centre of the image. The main wings go up and down the page from the fuselage.
