Re: Heinkel He 162 upper wingcolour Mystery

A note on 120076. This airframe has been repainted several times since the war. So what you are seeing, especially with the upper wing camo, is totally wrong. Now, as for the other 162 in the collection, 120086, this one still retains its original camouflage.

Unless otherwise, 120086 is the only Luftwaffe aircraft left in the world that still wears its original camouflage that was applied on the assembly line.
