Indeed, RAF parachutes (from memory) had the writing on the quick-release box written inverted, so that the pilots could look down and read the text...

given that the Germans were largely ahead in pilot-technology, I can't see why this wasn't the case with the Germans too, so, henceforth, is the box wrongly modelled?

Sorry, I left my anorak on today

No I know! But I'm also saying, that this may be incorrectly modelled too...
