Can it be the "white 15"?

Thanks Gerry for this pic.
This said, 16543 was effectively captured as attested by the following picture. Source unknown (to not say eBay)
Cheers,

The watermark in the upper left is for the Smithsonian/NASM in the USA.

Falcon, you're convincing. Check though the curvature of the engine cowling on the color photo: not the same plane...

Interesting evolution: we had "Weisse 15" since December 2014 as W.Nr. 18199, captured at Foggia. If only one period photo would show the left side of the tail, to match skin damage...

Cheers
Marc

Hmmm... and this, Marc? IHMO it looks very similar. And the more damaged cowling can also be the result of the rudely transport to the States?!

Ok, its a hard puzzle... and I like to stay on visual facts...
Notice the dark dirt/damage between the air scoope and the "Pik As". Very clear, or?
You got the "white 15" as WNr. 18199, based on what facts? I think you can change it now. ;-)
Greetings my friends... thanks to Nick, Franck and Marc and to Gerry for the photos.

The prop blades have the same damage/bend in them.
